Two weeks ago, over the same distance, the performance was reasonable, tracking the leader and maintaining a good pace throughout the middle stages but failing to sustain the effort to the finish, finishing third. He was beaten two and a half lengths. Returning from a break, he will carry 12 pounds more this time with respectable times recorded in his recent work. He should be able to secure a forward position following the leaders, drawing an advantageous inside barrier. Compared to other competitors, his ability is relatively strong. Ellis Wong takes the ride, demonstrating some understanding of the horse’s capabilities and maintaining a good rapport with the trainer. He has potential to lead.
