Seemingly back in peak form when making all over C&D at end of last season; safely held off this career-high mark on both outings this term but Angus Chung's useful 5lb claim aids his cause today.

Gave very good account when fifth at Sha Tin (1m) on last month's seasonal debut but was well beaten there (1m1f) on latest outing and is probably still too high in the weights.

Without a win since May 2022 but all three runs this season were very respectable; has the inside draw today and a recent 2lb drop helps; probably won't be far away.

Useful 2yo in Britain and has 3-7 strike-rate in Hong Kong, the latest win gained over C&D on seasonal debut in September; may not have been suited by switch to patient tactics when below form last month and could still have more to offer if addition of cheekpieces has positive effect today.

Excellent fourth in Hong Kong Derby (1m2f) in March but last of 14 in three consecutive 7f handicap since, most recently on last month's seasonal debut; big leap of faith required to support him at present.
