SUPER ELITE

Two weeks ago, this horse ran a moderate race over Sha Tin’s 1200m, settling in a good position tracking the leaders and making a mid-race move but failing to sustain the effort. Having dropped 21 pounds in body weight, he is now trialing over Happy Valley's shorter distance. This time with a two-pound deduction, despite a slower sectional time and drawing a poor barrier, a hold-up strategy will be employed. However, his finishing kick is unlikely to match rivals and the prospects look unfavorable, showing little chance."
