Three weeks ago, over a Happy Valley mile, the performance was adequate despite a slow jump and settling towards the rear. The horse showed a strong late run, finishing within two and a half lengths of the winner in fifth place. Returning to Sha Tin over 1400m this time with a three-pound weight reduction, the barrier draw isn't ideal. Although it has performed well at this distance previously, the competition is relatively even. A hold-up strategy is anticipated, relying on a strong finishing kick. Last-minute gate work indicates rapidly improving condition, aiming for first place.
