REWARDING TWINKLE

Four weeks ago, the horse performed respectably in a Happy Valley 1200m race. He was slow out of the gate and settled towards the rear, progressing steadily along; he gradually recovered ground in the finishing stages. Fortunately, he was not far behind and finished only two lengths back—a high standard. In his last run over 1400m on Sha Tin turf, he ran well in the same group, settling towards the rear. His finishing kick was arguably the strongest in his group, and based on overall assessment, he ranks among the top contenders. The jockey's style complements the horse's ability, and the trainer-jockey partnership seems harmonious. With thorough preparation before the race, he has considerable winning chances.
