GLORIOUS DYNASTY

Three weeks ago in the same race, his performance was not bad; he jumped slowly and ran from off the pace with a steady run along the way, regaining some ground at the finish. Fortunately, he wasn't too far behind, finishing two and a half lengths back. His sectional times were weak, putting him at a disadvantage in the race dynamics; if he continues to run from off the pace, his late burst of speed may not match his rivals. The jockey and trainer's combination was not ideal, so a lack of performance is understandable.
