FLOWING RICHES

Five weeks ago, this horse ran poorly over 1200m on Sha Tin turf. He finished with a steady pace and an unremarkable run. In his previous straight-line race, he carried 6lbs less this time and performed acceptably; the sectional times were adequate, and his position was not bad. He has the capacity to take an early lead, but lacks a standout finishing burst, and there isn't a particularly strong connection between the jockey and trainer. This suggests he is worth backing as an outsider.
