Three weeks ago, over the same distance, this horse performed satisfactorily despite a slow jump and settling towards the rear. It showed good acceleration in the middle stages and maintained a strong gallop. This time it benefits from a three-pound weight reduction but faces unfavorable timing against its rivals, making its position less advantageous. Even if able to secure a good position tracking the leaders and drawing an inside barrier, the horse is showing improving form and may benefit from being held up in the early stages.
