BEAUTY ALLIANCEFour weeks ago, this horse ran a respectable race over 2000m on the Sha Tin turf, settling in a good position tracking the leaders and showing acceleration in the middle stages with a strong finish. A recent dirt trial over 1200m (sections: 4-3-2) saw the horse circling wide on the bend without being fully extended down the straight. The trial showed slight improvement. Making its Hong Kong debut, the horse will race over 1800m at Happy Valley this time, carrying an additional six pounds. Having previously won twice over this distance, with good timing within the field and a favorable barrier draw, it holds a significant advantage in terms of ability compared to other contenders. The jockey has limited understanding of the horse's capabilities; while capable of maintaining position, its finishing speed is inferior to rivals and trainer-jockey communication needs improvement, likely securing a place within the top finishers.
