Three weeks ago, over the same distance, this horse underperformed, settling in a good position tracking the leaders and making a move in the middle stages but failing to sustain it to the finish, finishing fourth. He was beaten three and a half lengths, demonstrating reasonable ability. This time with a two-pound weight reduction, despite being among the fastest in the group and capable of securing a forward position, the barrier draw is favorable, and trainer-jockey combination appears solid. However, he has failed to place in three attempts over this distance, lacking a strong finishing kick, making his prospects unfavorable as a pairing option.
