On August 30th (Turf trial 1000m: 6-4-2), the horse maintained second position, not fully extended. On August 21st (Conghua dirt trial 1200m: 5-5-2), a slow jump but settled and made steady forward progress, showing improvement compared to previous trials. This is its seasonal debut. Two barrier trials have shown some progress. Need to carry nine pounds more this time; has performed well over this distance and recorded the best time among its group. Likely to track the leaders or set the pace, favorable positioning. Based on relative ability, it’s the strongest contender in this race. The jockey has some understanding of the horse's capabilities, and the trainer/jockey relationship is relatively good. Despite drawing an outside barrier and a potentially weak finishing kick, a clean jump and intent to track should see it finish among the leading pack.
