LUCKY SAM GOR

Last run winner, three weeks ago over the same distance, ran exceptionally well. Jumped slowly and settled back in the field before making a strong late surge with fast sectionals to win. This race requires carrying seven pounds more weight. Despite having some form over this distance, the sectional times of competitors are not significantly better. Likely to settle back again, showing good finishing kick, advantageous positioning, trainer and jockey have a reasonable working relationship, but drawing an outside barrier necessitates a cautious start.
