SYNERGY EXPRESS

Thirteen days ago, the horse performed respectably in a Sha Tin 1200m run. Though slow to leave the gates, he tracked back and progressed steadily, regaining significant ground in the final stages. Later, in a Sha Tin 1400m trial, his initial run time was weak and the circumstances were unfavorable with a poor draw. If he adopts a trailing tactic, his finishing burst may not match the competition's, and the jockey-trainer combination hasn't shown exceptional synergy. However, his recent workouts have been decent, and with a three-pound weight reduction in this race, it is not surprising if his performance is less than ideal.
