On May 5th, this horse completed a turf trial over 1000m at Conghua in running position of 1-1-4, leading initially but fading towards the final stage. Five weeks ago in a similar race, the performance was poor, tracking the leaders with an even pace and lacking a strong finish. A recent barrier trial showed acceptable form. This time carrying two pounds less weight, he has drawn a poor barrier and is expected to be held up in the run. However, his finishing kick isn’t as strong as rivals, making for a disadvantageous situation; even if comparable in section times to horses in the same group, his chances appear limited.
