CELESTIAL STRIDER

Four weeks ago, he ran in the same race and performed poorly; slow to jump out, settled towards the rear, and showed a weakening run in the final stages, resulting in a heavy defeat. His time performance was not outstanding, and his position was quite disadvantaged. Racing towards the rear, his finishing kick might not match that of his rivals, and there isn't a particularly strong connection between the jockey and trainer. The only positives were drawing a good barrier and having a three-pound weight allowance in this race, though he remains a low-chance contender.
