On 5/6, the horse completed a relaxed dirt trial over 1200m at Conghua, finishing in positions of 2-2-4. A recent winner, four weeks ago it demonstrated impressive form over the same distance, leading from start to finish with a strong final section. A subsequent barrier trial yielded only an average performance. This race requires a six-pound weight increase, and the horse has shown previous records over this course. Times are competitive within its group, and it should be able to secure a good position tracking the leaders. Compared to other contenders, it possesses a higher level of ability; the jockey has some understanding of the horse's capabilities, and trainer/jockey communication is solid. Showing good track form, even with an outside draw and potential for a weaker finishing kick, it appears well-placed to defend its title.
