SHAMZ

5/10 (Sha Tin turf trial 1200m: 5-3-4) was slightly impeded during the run but still showed reserves of stamina. Five weeks ago in a similar race, his performance was lackluster; he ran from the rear and faded in the final stages. A recent trial did not show outstanding form. His time performance is not notable, and the circumstances are unfavorable; if he settles towards the back again, his closing speed may not match his rivals. The synergy between jockey and trainer is also not ideal, making high expectations difficult.
