GALLANT CROWNThree weeks ago, over Sha Tin’s 1600m, the horse underperformed, settling in a good position tracking the leaders and making a move in the middle stages but failing to sustain it. Returning to Happy Valley over a mile, it will carry an additional seven pounds this time. With five wins from thirty-one starts at this distance, its times are competitive within the field. It has the ability to track the pace setters and could potentially lead. Derek Leung takes the ride, with some familiarity of the horse's capabilities. Late work was added before racing, but despite that, a poor barrier draw and weak finishing kick leave it in an unfavorable position. Trainer and jockey don’t seem to have a strong rapport; however, if it jumps cleanly and settles into a tracking position, it may improve its performance.
