MASTER PAYMENT

Four weeks ago, this horse performed outstandingly in a straight race, holding on strongly and maintaining a consistent pace throughout, gradually regaining ground in the closing stages to finish as second, beaten only half a length. Stepping up to Sha Tin over 1200m this time, the trip should suit him well; his sectional times are not poor, and he has an advantageous draw. He can hold a favorable position near the front, possessing arguably the strongest finishing kick in his field. Based on assessments, he is considered one of the top contenders today. The jockey is familiar with this horse, and there is excellent understanding between the rider and trainer, giving him strong potential to win again.
