On August 29th, a turf trial over 1000m at Conghua saw the horse accelerate with ease through each section. This is his seasonal debut following one barrier trial showing slight improvement. He will carry an additional five pounds in this race, having previously performed well over this distance. His group timing was good and he looks capable of leading early. Drawing an inside barrier provides a favorable position; the horse holds significant advantages in this contest. Lyle Hewitson takes the ride, demonstrating some familiarity with the horse’s capabilities. Despite a potentially weak finishing kick and trainer/jockey mismatch, a clean break and intent to lead should see him forwardly positioned.
