MICKLEY

Two weeks ago, this horse performed well over a Sha Tin 1400m, jumping slowly and settling towards the rear with a consistent pace. However, it made a strong late run to finish second, beaten by half a length in a close finish, demonstrating high potential. Dropping back in class, it will now tackle a Sha Tin 1600m race again, carrying an additional 17 pounds this time. It has previous form over this distance and good times within the group. Drawing an inside barrier and expected to settle towards the rear, its finishing kick is likely the strongest in the field, making for favorable conditions. Based on this horse’s ability, it's a strong contender in this race; trainer and jockey appear to have a good rapport and are expecting to regain lost ground.
