May 26th (Conghua turf trial 1000m: 1-1-1) This horse trialed well after a break, taking the lead and running clear. In April, he ran in a dirt 1800m race, settling forward but with an even pace and lacking a strong finish for third place. After a long absence, he had one trial showing slight improvement. Returning to racing at Happy Valley over a mile this time without any additional weight, despite having some form over the distance and drawing a good barrier, trainer and jockey seem aligned in their approach. However, considering the sectionals of his peers, he will likely need to settle back in this race, though his finishing kick isn't as strong as rivals, making his prospects less favorable; expect him to be running on from behind.
