Following a respectable performance over the Happy Valley 1200m last start, where it settled towards the rear after a slow break but showed good late acceleration to finish fifth, beaten just half a length – a promising effort. This time stepping up to the Sha Tin 1200m for the first time, and thankfully carrying no additional weight, the distance looks suitable. Drawn an inside barrier should allow for a more prominent position in the early stages, suggesting potential for significant improvement; a transformation from seemingly out of contention to a winning contender is certainly possible.
