NYX GLUCK

Two weeks ago, over the same distance, this horse performed very well. A slow jump saw him settle towards the rear, before making a strong late run with fast sections in the final two furlongs to finish third, beaten only half a length. He doesn't need to carry additional weight this time and has proven form over this course. Posting the fastest time amongst his group, he is expected to be held up and relies on a good finishing kick; the horse appears well-positioned for success. Based on its ability, it’s considered the strongest contender in this race, with Hugh Bowman taking the ride after gaining some understanding of the horse's capabilities—and now showing its true potential.
