Last ran winner, three weeks ago over the same distance, performed impressively leading from start to finish and still showing a strong surge in the final stages to win. Stepping up in class this time with an 11-pound weight reduction, having secured five wins from nineteen starts over this course and distance, drawing a good barrier, it has potential to lead, and boasts favorable prospects. Relatively speaking, it possesses a stronger competitive edge than other contenders. Karis Teetan takes the ride, familiar with the horse’s capabilities; trainer and jockey maintain mutual trust. A clean jump and intent to take an early lead should see it contend for a forward position.
