DASHING MAURISON

Last ran winner, who performed excellently over a Happy Valley 1600m fourteen days ago, tracking the leaders evenly throughout and regaining some ground in the final stages to win. Moving up a class, he tried over a Happy Valley mile again; in this race, there is a 14lb weight allowance. The timing figures are still acceptable, and he draws a favorable barrier. If employed with a stalking running style, his closing speed in the final stages is among the strongest in the field. Overall assessment places him near the top of the field, with a decent partnership between jockey and horse; connections' synergy is acceptable, suggesting he has the potential to win again.
