Two weeks ago, this horse ran over a Sha Tin 1800m and jumped slowly, settling towards the rear but maintaining a steady pace with no notable acceleration. In a subsequent trial at Happy Valley over 1800m, he will carry a three-pound weight reduction this time. The sectionals weren’t significantly slower than his rivals, giving him a chance to lead early. He has drawn a favorable barrier and appears in good form, however, his finishing kick is questionable and the expectation is simply to run well.
