BIENVENUE

Five weeks ago, the horse performed reasonably well over a Happy Valley 1200m, maintaining a good position tracking the leaders and finishing beaten three and a half lengths. Running back over Sha Tin 1200m this time, it will carry two pounds more. The horse has lost all seven previous starts, the current prospects are slightly unfavorable, its draw is not ideal, and the closing speed was somewhat lacking. The jockey-trainer combination has not been perfect, making chances low.
