SHAMZ

On 28/8, he ran a dirt trial over 1200m (9-9-8) on an outer track, running a relaxed race. Making his debut this season, he performed excellently in the same race eight weeks ago, although starting slowly and tracking the pack throughout. He steadily closed with a strong surge in the final stages to win. A recent trial did not show much improvement. In this current race, his past performance is good and his time was decent; with an ideal draw, tracking the leaders suggests he still possesses significant closing power. The jockey and trainer seem well-matched, and they have been putting in the necessary work at the yard. Even if he needs to carry five extra pounds this time and the form doesn't perfectly align, he remains a viable runner to consider.
