Four weeks ago, in a race over the same distance, this horse performed poorly, tracking the leaders but fading badly and finishing well-beaten. This time, there is no weight reduction and facing rivals with differing times, the situation appears unfavorable with a trainer/jockey combination that doesn’t seem to gel. Despite having past results over this course and distance, and possessing the ability to track the pace, it will need to lead or race prominently. The jockey has some understanding of the horse's capabilities, and its form is improving with each run; connections hope for a good performance.
