HAPPY ALLIANCE

Eleven days ago, this horse performed very poorly in a Happy Valley 1200m race; it was slow coming out of the gate, tracked from behind with a steady pace, gradually closing in at the finish. In a subsequent run on Sha Tin over 1200m, its time performance was unremarkable, the circumstances were unfavorable, and its race position was not ideal; it had to track from behind and lacked the finishing kick of its rivals. The jockey and trainer do not appear particularly in sync, so it is not a contender for this race.
