Four weeks ago, over the same distance, this horse performed well, jumping slowly and settling towards the rear with a steady pace. It finished third after a strong run by La Stella, beaten by one and a half lengths. This time it needs to carry six pounds more. Although victorious twice at this distance previously and maintaining good times within its group, the tactics will likely involve holding back before unleashing a finishing kick. The trainer and jockey have a good rapport, preparations have been thorough, but the overall situation isn't particularly favorable; a slow start is anticipated.
