GLACIATED

On 12/6, this horse ran a turf barrier trial over 1200m at Conghua, finishing in the middle of the pack, cruising smoothly (running position: 3-3-5). On 29/5, in a Conghua turf barrier trial over 1000m, he led alone before settling back with the field (running position: 1-1-4). Eight weeks ago, his performance over a Happy Valley mile was disappointing, as he faded in the closing stages and finished badly. Having only completed two trial sessions, his preparation is not yet sufficient. In a recent Sha Tin turf run over 1200m, his time figures were weak and the circumstances slightly unfavorable; he lacked a standout finishing kick, and the jockey-trainer coordination was not ideal. Winning this race relies on previous performances and favorable draws, and he is therefore not the selection for today's race.
