On 9/6, in a Conghua turf trial over 1000m, this horse recorded times of 1-1-2, showing the fastest pace in the early and middle sections before being held. On 26/5, during a Conghua turf trial over 800m (times 2-1-1), he jumped out slightly slow but displayed good enthusiasm and willingness to run. In April, over the same distance in his previous race, performance was below expectations; he had a slow start and settled towards the rear, but finished with a strong finishing move. Returning from a spell, he has undergone two barrier trials showing some improvement. This time he benefits from a one-pound weight reduction, has proven form at this distance, good times within his group, and is expected to settle back in the field before unleashing a solid finishing kick; overall, appears to be in a favorable position for a win.
