On April 22nd, the horse completed a dirt trial over 1200m in sections of 7-7-2, remaining calm early on before moving out at the bend and accelerating automatically. Four weeks ago, it delivered an impressive performance over Sha Tin’s 1200m turf track, jumping slowly but settling back in the field before finishing strongly in the final two sections to secure second place, beaten by half a length. A recent barrier trial showed slight improvement. This will be its first attempt at 1400m on turf; it carries only a 2lb penalty this time and is expected to perform well over this distance, requiring a hold-up tactic with a strong finishing kick being its greatest asset. The horse appears in good form and the jockey has some familiarity with its capabilities, while trainer and rider maintain mutual trust, suggesting a competitive chance.
