DENFIELD

On August 27th (dirt trial 1200m: 6-6-4), the horse didn’t fully extend on the straight but showed promising late acceleration. This is his seasonal debut, having undergone one barrier trial with acceptable performance. Body weight has been reduced by twenty-eight pounds and benefits from a three-pound claim this time, though he drew a poor barrier. The plan is to settle towards the rear of the field; however, finishing kick may not be strong enough compared to rivals, creating an unfavorable situation. Despite having secured three wins over this distance previously, the group timing was not significantly different, indicating limited chances.
