Two weeks ago, this horse ran poorly over Sha Tin 2000m, tracking the leaders but fading badly and finishing well-beaten. Switching to a Happy Valley mile for its first attempt at this distance, it will carry an eleven-pound weight reduction. The distance is unfavorable and the trainer-jockey combination isn’t ideal. Despite drawing a good barrier with a potential to lead, Ellis Wong has been engaged, aware of the horse's limitations, and the run appears to be more of a trial.
