STORMING DRAGONOn 2/9 (dirt trial 1200m: 5-3-2), the horse moved forward in each section, taking second place. On 22/8 (dirt trial 1050m: 4-4-2), it shifted out on the turn and maintained second position. This is the horse's seasonal debut after two barrier trials showing slight improvement. It will carry only a 2lb penalty this time, having previous form over this distance and good times within its group; drawing a favorable barrier. Compared to other contenders, it possesses relatively stronger ability. Andrea Atzeni takes the ride, understanding the horse’s temperament. However, a hold-up tactics are planned which may not be ideal given its finishing speed is inferior to rivals, and trainer/jockey combination appears less harmonious, hoping for a close finish.
