KA YING RISING

Six weeks ago, this horse won impressively over the same distance, leading from start to finish and winning by three and a half lengths. Recent barrier trial (15/1, dirt 1200m: 1-1-1) showed a good response and pace was controlled. Being a last ran winner, no additional weight is required this time. With fifteen wins in seventeen starts over this distance – the best time among its group - drawing a favorable barrier, it has the potential to lead. Its finishing speed is strong compared to others, presenting a significant advantage. Horse, jockey and trainer are well-matched, work is being done actively, and a clean jump should see it contend for a forward position without difficulty.
