Three weeks ago, this horse recorded a fast time in a dirt trial over 1050m (sections of 1-1-1), appearing to have more to offer. Five weeks prior, in a straight course race, the performance was poor; a slow start saw the horse settling towards the back with a steady pace and no notable finishing kick, beaten three lengths into sixth. A subsequent trial showed improvement. Another turf trial over 1200m at Sha Tin will see the horse carrying an additional three pounds this time. Having proven form over this distance and boasting respectable times within its group, drawing a favorable barrier positions it for a potential front-running strategy. Compared to other contenders, this horse possesses a clear advantage in ability. The jockey has been switched to Zac Purton, who has some familiarity with the horse, and trainer-jockey communication is good, suggesting thorough pre-race preparation. Even if lacking a strong finishing kick or facing an unfavorable track condition, a clean break should allow it to contend for a forward position.
