SKY CAP

Three weeks ago, over Sha Tin 1200m, the performance was unremarkable; it tracked the leaders and made a move in the middle stages but couldn’t sustain to the finish, finishing seventh beaten three and a half lengths. Now stepping onto Happy Valley's 1200m track with a nine-pound weight reduction, the distance appears suitable and drawing a good barrier allows for an opportunity to lead. Ellis Wong takes the ride, possessing a strong understanding of the horse’s temperament; despite potential trainer-jockey mismatch, a clean break and commitment to leading should improve its chances.
