Two weeks ago, over the same distance, the horse performed moderately. It jumped slowly, settled towards the back, and then made a fast run in the final two sections. This time, it has a one-pound weight reduction, is competing against similarly timed horses, and drew an inside barrier – a favorable position. The jockey has some understanding of the horse's capabilities, but even if forced to race from behind, its finishing kick isn’t as strong as its rivals. There appears to be limited synergy between the jockey and trainer; consider it a likely outsider with potential for minor placing.
