THOUSAND SPIRIT

Four weeks ago, this horse ran competitively in the same race. He was slow to jump out and settled towards the rear, but fortunately, the margin of defeat was small; he lost by only three and a half lengths, indicating a high standard. The circumstances were slightly unfavorable due to poor draw position, and his finishing kick was somewhat lacking. While the jockey and trainer partnership wasn't outstanding, given his previous performances and acceptable time indicators, he is not the top pick for this race.
