SANDMANOn March 25th (turf trial, 1600m: 12-12-12-11), the horse settled towards the rear and showed no impressive bursts. On April 3rd (dirt trial, 1200m: 7-8-8) it ran wide tracking the pace with little momentum. On February 18th (dirt trial, 1200m: 9-9-8), the horse jumped quickly but requires further development. A dirt trial on April 2nd (1200m: 8-9-9) showed a lack of speed, finishing at the back of the field. A Conghua dirt trial on February 16th (1200m: 6-6-5) involved light urging with unremarkable performance. This is its debut race as a new horse, having begun training in Hong Kong around late October last year. Five barrier trials have been conducted this season without showing improvement. The horse has a low stride and maintains a steady pace, potentially suiting longer distances but needs more conditioning. Given it’s a first-time starter, observing its initial performance is recommended.
