GOOD LUCK BABE

Two weeks ago, this horse ran disappointingly over a Sha Tin 1600m turf race, settling in a good position tracking the leaders and maintaining a fast pace through the first two sections but fading noticeably to finish last. In a subsequent Happy Valley mile trial, he will carry one pound more weight this time. Despite drawing a favorable barrier with potential for an early lead, the jockey has only limited understanding of the horse’s capabilities. The sectional times weren't impressive and the overall form is questionable; trainer-jockey communication seems lacking, suggesting it’s best to avoid expectations.
