On August 25th, this horse completed a turf trial over 1200m at Conghua, tracking the pace and showing willingness to accelerate when asked. This is his seasonal debut after one barrier trial indicating slight improvement. A further turf trial over 1200m at Sha Tin was undertaken; he will carry a three-pound weight reduction this time. He has seven unsuccessful runs over this distance previously and faces a challenging time difference within the group, coupled with an unfavorable outside draw. While capable of securing a good position tracking the leaders, trainer and jockey have a reasonable rapport but prospects appear limited.
