MICKLEY

4/9 (Sha Tin turf trial 1000m: trailing - tracking - moving up) and 24/8 (Sha Tin turf trial 1000m: quick acceleration, not as expected). After starting the season, his performance two months ago in a race was subpar; he jumped slowly and tracked near the rear, maintaining a steady pace. He gradually closed in towards the finish line and fortunately wasn't far behind, finishing only two and a half lengths off. Having completed two trial barrier jumps without improvement. With three consecutive losses this season, the circumstances do not favor him currently. However, if he adopts a tracking-from-the-rear style, his closing speed is the strongest in the group, and his timing within the group is acceptable; it would not be surprising if he shows some lack of performance.
