Three weeks ago, this horse’s performance over a Sha Tin 1400m turf race was unsatisfactory, tracking the leaders throughout. He made a mid-race move but couldn't sustain it to the finish, finishing fourth and beaten by half a length only. Stepping up in class now, with another trial on the straight course, he benefits from a ten-pound weight reduction this time. Having secured three wins over this distance previously, his times are comparable to rivals, requiring a hold-up tactics to unleash a strong finishing kick – which is his strongest asset within the field. Favorable conditions and a jockey change to Alexis Badel who is gaining understanding of the horse’s capabilities; trainer and jockey have good rapport with targeted trackwork ahead of race day for an all-out win.
