WIN METHOD

Two weeks ago, this horse ran well over a Sha Tin 1200m, jumping slowly and settling towards the rear before making progress in the middle sections with a strong run. Now stepping up to a Sha Tin 1400m for its first attempt at this distance, it will benefit from a five-pound weight reduction. While the current form isn’t ideal, the longer trip is expected to suit and has drawn a favourable barrier offering an opportunity to lead. A clean break should see it push forward for the lead.
