On 9/9 (dirt trial 1200m, running positions 7-8-4), the jump was average and moved out at the 300m mark, forcing to chase. On 27/8 (dirt trial 1200m, running positions 7-7-5), shifted out on the bend and urged forward. This is the horse’s seasonal debut after two barrier trials which revealed a lack of progress. Stepping up in class for this race with a 12lb weight reduction, despite having secured two wins over this distance previously, the section times were respectable within the group. The trainer-jockey combination appears harmonious; however, a hold-up tactics are anticipated but the finishing kick is unlikely to match rivals, hoping only for a solid run.
