On 6/13 (Conghua turf trial 1600m: 4-4-5-4), the horse ran comfortably with something in reserve. After a long break, this is its seasonal debut. Four barrier trials have been undertaken with unremarkable results. Dropping back in class for this race, it will carry 18 pounds more weight this time. It has previous form over this distance and recorded good times against its stablemates; the draw is favorable. Based on current ability compared to rivals, it appears to be a leading contender. Workouts have been positive, though a hold-up tactic may be employed as finishing speed isn’t a strength, leaving its chances somewhat vulnerable. Considered capable of winning nonetheless.
