On August 26th, this horse breezed impressively over a dirt track at 1200m (sections recorded as 1-1-1), taking the lead and showing excellent conformation. This is his seasonal debut after one trial run demonstrating improvement. He ran his first race on the dirt surface over 1200m, and will carry seven pounds less this time. Despite having secured two wins at this distance previously and recording comparable times to competitors in this group, he possesses strong early speed and has drawn an inside barrier for a favorable position. Compared to other contenders, he shows a higher level of ability; the trainer and jockey have a good rapport, however his finishing kick is a concern and connections are hoping for a place finish.
