Two weeks ago, this horse ran poorly over a Sha Tin 1400m race, taking the lead but tiring significantly in the final sections and finishing second. He was beaten by only half a length, demonstrating good ability. Having his first dirt trial over 1200m, he now has a one-pound weight reduction for this race. The distance should suit him well, and is expected to contend for the lead. Connections have confidence in both horse and jockey, and remains a worthwhile consideration.
