Six weeks ago, this horse ran a respectable race over a Happy Valley mile, with a slow jump and settling towards the rear. He made a mid-race move, attempting to close on the leaders but was beaten two and a half lengths for sixth place. Now stepping up in class and returning to Sha Tin over 1800m, he will benefit from an 18lb weight reduction. The opposition appears strong, hindering his chances despite having previous form over this distance; while showing improvement with gatework, it may not be enough for success in this race.
