LUCKY ARCHANGELThree weeks ago, this horse ran a respectable race over Sha Tin’s 1200m, settling nicely in midfield and showing strong momentum to finish third, beaten three and a half lengths. Returning to Happy Valley over 1200m this time with a one-pound weight reduction, the horse has seven wins from thirty-seven starts at this distance. The competition within its group appears reasonable; it should be able to track the pace setters and potentially lead. With a favorable barrier draw and overall good positioning, it possesses superior strength compared to other contenders. The jockey understands the horse’s temperament, and even with a potentially weak finishing kick or trainer mismatch, a smooth start and commitment to tracking the leaders should see it finish among the frontrunners.
