On September 27th, this horse recorded (Happy Valley turf trial 1700m: 4-4-6-5), responding well to urging but not extending significantly. Three weeks ago in a Sha Tin mile race, the performance was moderate; a slow start saw it settle towards the rear, with a mid-race effort proving insufficient for a strong finish. A recent barrier trial did not demonstrate improvement. Switching to Happy Valley over a mile now, it’s a first attempt at this distance. With a two-pound weight reduction, the trip is unfavorable and a backmarker strategy is anticipated, however, its finishing kick appears inferior to rivals making its chances look slim despite securing a favorable draw; further observation is recommended before considering a bet.
