EVERSTAR

Thirteen days ago, this horse performed poorly over Sha Tin turf 1200m, jumping slowly and settling towards the rear; he maintained a steady pace throughout but lacked any impressive momentum. In a recent 1200m dirt trial, he faced a difficult trip and lacked a finishing kick. While the partnership between trainer and jockey has yet to show significant progress, his overall time was acceptable. Dropping 3lb for this race, he should not be overlooked.
