SKY CAP

The last-ran winner showed outstanding form in a Happy Valley 1200m run fourteen days ago, winning from the back. Stepping up in class, he showed again over a short distance on Happy Valley turf; for this race, he carries 12lbs less weight. His grouping time is acceptable, and he drew a good barrier draw, allowing him to maintain an advantageous front position. Overall rating places him among the top contenders in the field, and the jockey-trainer combination is satisfactory. However, his finishing kick has not been particularly outstanding, but he remains a horse to watch.
