CALIFORNIA BAYTwo weeks ago, this horse ran over a Sha Tin 1600m and settled in a good position tracking the leaders, maintaining a steady pace but lacking a strong finishing surge. He finished sixth, beaten three and a half lengths. Returning to racing, he will now try Sha Tin over 1400m, carrying an additional seventeen pounds this time. He recorded the fastest time within his group and has drawn a favorable barrier, providing opportunities for an early lead. His overall form is good and based on relative strength, he appears to be the strongest contender in this race. The jockey understands the horse’s temperament; despite a potentially weak finishing kick, there's a lack of synergy with the trainer. A clean break should see him aim for the front immediately.
