Six weeks ago, this horse ran over a Sha Tin 1600m, performing adequately despite a slow start and settling towards the rear. He finished strongly in the final two sections with good speed, finishing fifth beaten by one and a half lengths. A recent trial showed slight improvement. In a dirt trial on 18/3 (1200m: 6-6-3), he made steady progress along the straight. This time, he needs to carry an additional pound, but has previous form over this distance. He is expected to run from behind, possessing the strongest finishing kick in his group and appears in good form with a favorable draw; the trainer & jockey combination seems harmonious. However, the overall times within the group are unremarkable, making optimal pairing essential.
