On 11/9 (dirt trial 1200m: 3-3-3), the horse maintained a good position, tracking the leaders in third. This is its seasonal debut, following one barrier trial showing slight improvement. This race features a one-pound weight reduction, but the overall time of its group isn't strong and the barrier draw isn’t ideal. Trainer/jockey combination appears less compatible. Even with previous form over this distance, it requires a hold-up tactics, relying on a finishing kick within the field. Lyle Hewitson takes the ride; the jockey has some understanding of the horse’s capabilities, but pre-race trackwork hasn't indicated strong potential.
