LOVERO

Last run winner, three weeks ago over the same distance, performed well settling in a good position tracking the leaders and finishing strongly to win. This time requires carrying an 8lb penalty, has previous form over this course and distance, and is expected to challenge for the lead. The barrier draw is favorable, the jockey understands the horse’s temperament. Despite potentially slower sectionals and a perceived mismatch with the trainer, a clean break should see it attempt to take an early lead.
