Four weeks ago, this horse ran well over a dirt 1200m, jumping moderately and settling towards the back before showcasing strong late speed. A recent dirt trial showed no significant improvement. Now stepping up to a dirt mile for its first attempt at this distance with a six-pound weight reduction, despite drawing an outside barrier and facing a potentially unfavorable race shape, the horse may need to settle in behind and lacks sufficient finishing kick to compete effectively; further observation is recommended before considering a wager.
