HK’s dual Horse of the Year has won five G1/HKG1 races from 1600m to 2000m, including the 2011 G1 AP QEII Cup (2000m). Only 4th in last year’s HK Cup but brilliant in winning first two legs of HK Triple Crown thereafter. Began this season with a devastating win in an HKG2 over a mile in October. Ran 2nd to Glorious Days last time when lacked spark in G2 Jockey Club Mile. Usually races in touch before unleashing late burst. Relishes quick ground.

Has won the past two runnings of the G1 Champions Mile over the course and distance and was a neck 3rd in this race last year. Due to a slight setback, he made a belated seasonal return in the G2 Jockey Club Mile on 18 November and was not given a hard race in finishing 3.5L 5th. Can settle back or handy - enjoys good going.
