CAP LINER

A month ago, in a straight course race, the performance was poor; slow to jump and settled towards the rear with an even pace, showing no finishing burst and finished fourth, beaten two and a half lengths. Now switching to a Happy Valley sprint for its first attempt at this distance, it benefits from a one-pound weight reduction. Despite drawing a good barrier, the shorter trip is unfavorable, presenting a challenging scenario and suggesting a potentially cautious approach.
