Four weeks ago, this horse delivered an excellent performance in a straight course race, settling nicely tracking the leaders and finishing with a strong two-section pace to secure third place. He was beaten three and a half lengths, demonstrating good ability. Another turf trial over 1200m is scheduled, with a one-pound weight reduction this time. The horse's times are comparable to its competition, and it has the potential to track the leaders or set the pace. A hold-up strategy is anticipated, displaying a strong finishing kick. The jockey has some understanding of the horse’s capabilities, and the trainer/jockey relationship appears positive; pre-race workouts were conducted but the barrier draw isn't ideal, with hopes for a good run.
