SIMPLE HEDGEFour weeks ago, over this same distance, the performance was reasonable despite a slow start and settling towards the rear. The horse made a mid-race move, accelerating strongly in the final two sections, chasing after Last Chance. This time with a two-pound weight reduction, it has failed to win in four attempts over this course and distance. While needing to settle back again this race, its finishing kick is unlikely to match rivals. Despite an unfavorable situation, it benefits from having the best time within its group and drawing a decent barrier position, offering hope for redemption.
