Last run winner, two weeks ago this horse delivered an excellent performance over a Happy Valley mile, leading from start to finish and winning by a length and a half. Now stepping up to 1800m at Happy Valley, it will carry six pounds more this time. The distance suits the horse well and with a good barrier draw, it's expected to track the pace. Its finishing kick is considered the strongest in the field, giving it a favorable position. In terms of ability compared to other contenders, it appears to be leading the pack. The jockey has some familiarity with the horse, and trainer-jockey combination seems well-suited. Trackwork has been positive; a clean break and willingness to track the pace should see it finish among the frontrunners.
