Two weeks ago, over a Sha Tin 1400m course, the performance was below expectations; a slow jump saw it settle at the back of the field, accelerating in the middle stages but failing to sustain the effort. It finished seventh, beaten three and a half lengths. Another turf trial over 1200m is scheduled, this time carrying six pounds more weight and drawing an inside barrier. The plan is to settle towards the rear again, with a promising finishing kick anticipated. The horse's current form is decent, and trainer-jockey communication appears solid; potential for an upset win."
