SUNNY Q

Two weeks ago, over this same distance, the horse performed well despite a slow start, settling towards the rear and making a mid-race move. He finished sixth, beaten two and a half lengths. This time benefiting from a four-pound weight reduction, but with three previous losses at this distance, a hold-up tactic is expected. However, his finishing kick may not be strong enough against rivals, and his overall situation isn’t ideal. Fortunately, the competition within the group looks reasonable, and he demonstrates comparatively stronger ability than other entrants; trainer and jockey have confidence in each other, with hopes for a victory.
