On September 16th, a turf trial over 800m saw the horse finish in sections of 5-6-6, showing stronger finishing strength than previously. Returning from a long break, this is his seasonal debut. One barrier trial showed no notable performance. A subsequent Sha Tin turf trial over 1200m sees him with a four-pound weight reduction for this race. He has failed to win in four previous attempts at this distance, and despite comparable times within the group, he drew an outside barrier. The anticipated tactic is to settle towards the rear, however, his finishing kick appears inferior to rivals making his prospects unfavorable. Surprisingly, AI algorithms still suggest a potential opportunity for immediate improvement.
