On 2/9, the horse completed a dirt trial over 1050m in times of 1-1-2, showing a calm demeanor while being positioned to lead. This is his debut run this season. He’s had one barrier trial previously with slight improvement shown. Following that, he trialled on the straight course. For this race, he carries no additional weight and faces competitive timing within his group, capable of tracking early pace-setters. He can adopt a forward running position, draws a favorable barrier, and has maintained consistent form in morning trackwork; despite a potentially weak finishing kick, the current conditions are acceptable. A clean break should allow him to secure a prominent position.
