SECOND TO NONE

Four weeks ago, this horse performed poorly over a Sha Tin 1400m race, with a slow jump and settling towards the rear. It made a mid-race effort but faded in the final stages. Now stepping up to a Happy Valley 1200m for its first attempt, it has a one-pound weight reduction but faces an unfavorable distance and drew a poor barrier. Despite potential early speed, this run is likely considered a trial race.
