On September 16th (dirt trial 1200m: 2-6-6), the horse was unable to take an early lead and tracked the pace comfortably. On August 29th (dirt trial 1200m: 8-8-7), it travelled wide throughout, showing a decent attitude. This is its seasonal debut after two barrier trials where it hasn't fully extended itself. Carrying a three-pound weight reduction this race, it has the potential to lead and draws a favorable barrier. A gate workout was added before the race; despite unfavorable sectional times compared to other horses in the same group, a clean break should see it aim for an early lead and secure a forward position.
