FIGHT TIME

Four weeks ago, this horse performed very poorly alongside the others, settling in a good position tracking near the front but showed weakness in the final stages. Fortunately, he wasn't too far behind, finishing only three lengths off the winner. The pace was somewhat slow, making his prospects slightly unfavorable with no outstanding late kick. The jockey and trainer do not seem to have a particularly strong rapport; however, given his prior form and the two pounds weight reduction in this race, he could be a dark horse.
