HONG LOK GOLFOn May 29th (dirt trial 1200m, running in third position throughout, accelerating automatically on the straight). Last ran winner, five weeks ago it showcased an outstanding performance over a Sha Tin mile, with a slow jump but finishing strong from behind at a fast pace in the final sections to secure victory. A recent barrier trial showed slight improvement. Making its debut over a Happy Valley mile this time, needing to carry six pounds more and stepping up in distance is expected to suit. Drawn well, it’s likely to settle back early relying on a powerful finishing kick – the strongest in the group. It holds a noticeable advantage in ability compared to other horses, the jockey has some familiarity with its capabilities, trainer and jockey are working well together, and training has been vigorous, suggesting another win is possible.
