Seven days ago, he ran respectably over 1400m on Sha Tin turf; though slow to get going from the gates, he tracked and accelerated in the middle section before pressing on in the final two sections. His next attempt over 1600m on Sha Tin turf was his debut at this distance, where the trip did not suit him; his time figures were weak and his position slightly disadvantaged. He was forced to run from the rear, lacking the finishing power of his rivals, and there wasn't a standout partnership between jockey and trainer; it didn't seem well-planned.
