Despite WATERBERRY LANE recent lackluster form, a deeper dive into his track record unveils noteworthy achievements in prior races. Notably, he trailed by a mere 2.25 lengths in the 2022 Daily News 2000 and 2.3 lengths in last year’s running of the 2023 World Sports Betting Cape Town Met. Should he rediscover this form, there’s a chance he could potentially secure a spot in the back end of the quartets or even cause a surprise upset, thanks to his advantageous draw.
