Two weeks ago, this horse performed respectably over a Sha Tin 1800m race, jumping slowly and settling towards the rear with a consistent pace but showing some late acceleration. Returning to Happy Valley over 1800m, he benefits from a two-pound weight reduction. Despite a similar time in the sectionals, this horse has drawn a poor barrier, requiring a hold-up strategy. However, his finishing kick wasn’t strong enough against rivals and faces unfavorable conditions. Even with previous form at this distance, winning chances appear limited.
