Two weeks ago, over the same distance, despite finishing in the front group, this horse broke slowly and settled at the rear. He maintained a steady pace but lacked a strong turn of foot, finishing second beaten three lengths. This time, no additional weight will be carried. Although the horse has performed well over this distance and comparable times within the field, he drew a good barrier. The jockey has some familiarity with the horse's capabilities, and trainer-jockey communication is reasonable. Preparations are adequate for the race, but a rearward position is expected, however, the finishing kick isn’t as strong as its rivals, making the prospects less favorable; a cautious approach is advised.
