PERFECT GENERALSix weeks ago, over the same distance, the horse ran well, settling in a good position tracking the leaders at a steady pace before being challenged by Leader’s Fortune and finishing third, beaten by one and a half lengths. A recent turf trial (1000m) at Conghua showed slight improvement (sections 3-4-1 with urging to finish). This time benefiting from an eight-pound weight reduction, with proven form over this distance and favorable timing within its group, it has the potential to track the pace setters or even lead. An advantageous barrier draw further enhances its chances. Compared to other contenders, this horse holds a noticeable strength advantage. Ellis Wong takes the ride, showing some familiarity with the horse’s capabilities. Despite a potentially weak finishing kick and a trainer-jockey dynamic that isn't ideal, a clean break and commitment to tracking the pace should see it finish among the frontrunners.
