Three weeks ago, this horse recorded (Turf trial 1000m: 9-9-6), settling back with cover early and showing a good finishing kick after improving position. Eight weeks ago, he ran poorly over a Happy Valley mile, slow to jump and settling towards the rear with an even pace but lacking a strong finish. Following a break, he had one trial run which wasn't fully extended. Making his debut after switching stables, he’s dropped 20 pounds in body weight and is running again following a period of acclimatization. He steps up to Sha Tin over 1400m this time with a 19-pound weight increase, the section times were reasonable compared to other horses in the same group, and appears well positioned. Trainer and jockey seem to be building good rapport, and has been doing gatework recently, expected to settle comfortably into a forward position.
