SKY SONG

On June 30th (dirt trial 1200m: 9-8-7), the horse was urged forward with a strong finishing sprint. On June 20th (dirt trial 1200m: 1-2-6), he tracked the pace in the early sections and finished well on the straight. On June 9th (Conghua turf trial 1000m: 6-5-7) he had a slow start, settling towards the rear of the field. Prior to July, this horse ran a respectable race over Sha Tin’s 1200m turf track with a moderate break and finishing strongly while trailing behind. Returning from a long spell, he has undergone three barrier trials without showing significant improvement. Making his Hong Kong debut over Happy Valley's 1200m, carrying an eight-pound weight reduction, he boasts some previous form at this distance and comparable times to rivals. Despite drawing a favorable barrier and the likelihood of settling towards the rear, his finishing kick appears weaker than that of its opponents, making it a less advantageous position; consider as a longshot."
