On March 13th, recorded the fastest time in a dirt trial at Conghua over 1200m with sections of 1-1-1, showing significant reserves of energy. This horse was last victorious seven weeks ago over the same distance, leading from start to finish. A subsequent barrier trial showed slight improvement. Stepping up in class this race, he benefits from a 13-pound weight reduction but has drawn a poor barrier. The plan is to settle back in the field, however, his finishing speed may not match rivals, and the overall situation isn’t ideal. His past performance at this distance is positive, and connections appear compatible, suggesting potential for a placing.
