On September 12th, a turf trial over 1200m at Conghua showed moderate improvement with urging on the straight. This is the horse’s seasonal debut and he has completed one barrier trial with satisfactory performance. He benefits from a three-pound weight reduction this time, with reasonable sectionals within his group; capable of settling in a good position tracking the leaders. An inside draw combined with gatework suggests potential. Despite a winless record in three previous attempts over this distance, and a weak finishing kick, he should not be discounted.
