FIVEFORTWO

Last run winner, six weeks ago over the same distance, performed exceptionally well with a slow jump and settling towards the rear. Maintained an even pace throughout and made steady ground in the final section to win. This time required to carry 12 pounds more weight; timing gap within the group is not ideal. If adopting a hold-up tactic, a strong finishing kick may be insufficient against rivals. However, having secured two wins over this distance previously and enjoying good trainer-jockey synergy, still considered to have some chance.
