On September 30th (dirt trial 1200m, in running position of each section: 5-4-2), the horse showed signs of conserving energy, making a positive move over the final two sections to secure second place. On September 11th (dirt trial 1200m, in running position of each section: 4-4-1), he accelerated well and quickly distanced opponents. This is his seasonal debut. Two trials have demonstrated improvement. Switching to Happy Valley over 1200m for this race, it’s a first attempt at this distance; he will carry an additional three pounds. While capable of taking the lead early, despite drawing a good barrier, the horse's stamina is questionable and the trainer-jockey combination isn’t ideal; connections are hoping for a respectable performance.
