MASSIVE REWARD

5/10 (Sha Tin turf trial 1200m: 2-1-6) Shows decent early speed and maintained pace in the final stages. Five weeks ago, he ran poorly over 1400m on Sha Tin turf, tracking the leaders but fading in the closing stages to a heavy defeat. A recent trial showed no improvement. Switching to Happy Valley turf over a mile for the first time, he appears ill-suited to the distance; his finishing kick is not prominent. His win is attributed only to a strong run and an advantageous draw, so high expectations should be tempered.
