Three weeks ago, the horse ran disappointingly over a Sha Tin 1400m race, leading easily with a steady pace but lacking a strong finish. He finished sixth, beaten by half a length. Now stepping up to a Sha Tin 1600m for the first time, he will carry one pound more this time. The distance should suit him and he's expected to settle in a good position tracking the leaders. Trainer and jockey have a decent rapport, showing improvement but drawing an outside barrier is unfavorable and may hinder his finishing kick.
