Four weeks ago, this horse performed creditably in the same race. He was slow to get going from the barrier and settled towards the rear, maintaining a steady pace throughout; he gradually closed in on the final stages to finish second. The circumstances were not particularly favorable, and his closing speed was slightly lacking in the final phase. There wasn't a strong rapport between the jockey and trainer, but given the ideal draw and good timing in the field, he could be considered a potential outsider.
