Five weeks ago, this horse ran well over the dirt 1200m, jumping moderately and settling towards the back. Showing a strong late surge, it finished second, beaten two lengths – a good performance. A subsequent trial on the Sha Tin turf over 1400m sees the horse race with no additional weight, facing favorable timing and expected to run from behind with a potent finishing kick, making it among the strongest in its group. With an advantageous draw, Zac Purton takes the reins; the jockey has some understanding of the horse’s capabilities, and trainer-jockey synergy remains strong. A gate workout suggests the horse is primed to perform at its best.
