On April 11th, a turf trial over 1200m at Conghua saw the horse travel comfortably near the front with an easy pace. This horse is a recent winner, having secured victory five weeks ago over the same distance after a moderate break and settling towards the rear with a steady tempo before finishing strongly under pressure. A subsequent barrier trial performance was unremarkable. He faces a weight increase of 8 pounds in this race, having previously won three times at this distance. The competition appears evenly matched, but he should be able to secure a good position tracking the leaders, and possesses the strongest finishing kick in his group. Overall form is relatively excellent; horse, jockey and trainer are well-suited, suggesting a strong challenge for a repeat victory.
