The gelding was respectable in a recent Happy Valley mile contest, missing the break and settling towards the rear. He finished with a strong late surge, closing to within three and a half lengths of the winner for eighth position. Stepping out at Sha Tin over 1600m next, he faces a fourteen-pound weight increase. While expected to race from off the pace again, his finishing kick may not be sufficient to overcome rivals in this competitive field; despite having some form over this distance, the opposition appears evenly matched and doesn’t favour a strong showing.
