FORTUNATE SON

Two weeks ago, over a Sha Tin 1400m race, the performance was moderate. The jump wasn’t quick, settling towards the rear with a steady pace but showing a late surge. Now trying Happy Valley over 1800m, carrying one pound less this time, the distance suits. Drawing a good barrier and expected to settle back in the field, it boasts strong finishing power within its class. This horse appears as a serious contender in this race; Derek Leung takes the ride, demonstrating some understanding of the horse’s capabilities. The trainer and jockey have a good rapport, making it a potential winner.
