Three weeks ago, this horse performed excellently in a race alongside the field, showing good acceleration to secure second place. Fortunately, he did not carry much extra weight and was only beaten half a length, indicating a high standard. His time figures are not poor, and the race conditions suited him well with favorable draws. His early speed is sufficient to challenge actively, making him one of the highest-rated horses in this race. The jockey and trainer's teamwork appears smooth; however, he needs to carry an extra four pounds this time, has failed in his last five starts, and his finishing kick is slightly lacking; nonetheless, he remains a key contender.
