Two weeks ago, this horse ran at Sha Tin over 1800m but underperformed expectations, tracking the leaders before making a fast-paced run in the final two sections to finish fourth, beaten by two and a half lengths – a respectable showing. Further track work on the Sha Tin turf over 2000m suggests improvement. This time, he needs to carry one pound more. He has proven form at this distance, recording the best time among his group, and is expected to challenge for the lead. Drawing a favorable barrier, he appears to be a strong contender in this race; the jockey understands the horse's capabilities, and trainer-jockey combination works well. A clean break and an intent to take the early lead should see him perform well.
