On May 13th, in a turf trial at Conghua over 1200m (sections: 7-6-6), the horse settled mid-pack and was held back without being fully extended. Three weeks ago, in a similar distance trial, performance was unsatisfactory; a slow jump led to settling towards the rear before making late ground with fast sections. A subsequent barrier trial showed no obvious improvement. This race sees the horse carry no additional weight. Although showing good section times within its group, it will likely settle back in the field, possessing the strongest finishing kick of its group. The form is encouraging but drawing an outside barrier presents a challenge; positioning will be key.
