Three weeks ago, over the same distance, the horse performed well, jumping slowly and settling towards the back. Maintaining a steady pace, it finished strongly to take third, beaten by half a length. This time, carrying only a one-pound increase in weight, the draw is unfavorable, requiring a hold-up tactic; however, its finishing kick may not be strong enough to compete with rivals, making for a challenging situation. Fortunately, it has previous form over this distance and comparable times within the group – proceed with caution.
