STERLING WONGCHOYOn September 27th, this horse recorded (Happy Valley turf trial 1200m: 5-4-3), making a move two lengths behind and responding well to the whip in third. On September 12th at Conghua (turf trial 1200m: 2-2-1) he was restrained early but launched a forward challenge on the straight, performing competently. This is his seasonal debut following two trials showing slight improvement. He benefits from a two-pound weight reduction this time; possessing good form over this distance and competitive sectionals within its group, it has the potential to track the leaders or set the pace. Drawing a reasonable barrier, he will be ridden by Keith Yeung, who has some understanding of the horse’s capabilities. However, his finishing kick is a concern, and trainer-jockey synergy isn't ideal; connections are hoping for a place.
