Two weeks ago, over this same distance, despite finishing among the leading group while settling in a good position tracking the leaders, the pace was steady and the horse lacked a strong finish, resulting in third place. He was beaten by only half a length. This time with a seven-pound weight reduction, having previously secured two wins at this course and distance, and comparable times within the field, drawing a favorable barrier allows for a forward run. Compared to other competitors, he possesses a higher level of ability, though his overall situation isn’t particularly advantageous, aiming for a place.
