LOOKING BRIGHT

25/6, dirt trial 1200m (positioning: 1-1-2), ran leading but was overtaken at the gate. Five weeks ago, in a straight race, his performance was decent; he maintained a good position tracking the leaders and finished close to the pace, finishing only two lengths behind, indicating a high standard. He showed slight improvement in a recent trial run. In his last Happy Valley 1200m run, he will carry six pounds more in this race. His time indicator is weak, and his finishing kick is slightly inferior; however, his ability to make a strong move and his overall race shape are not bad, although no clear opportunity presented itself.
