Looking at Sky Eye’s last few runs, it is hard to get inspired.

Since finishing ninth and almost six lengths adrift of the winner Kharisma in the Group 3 Rocket Man Sprint (1,200m) on Aug 6, his race record has been discomfiting.

Indeed, his last three runs read: 0-0-0.

Last in a Class 1 race (1,200m) to Silent Is Gold on Jan 20. Second-last on Feb 17 in a Kranji Stakes A 1,100m race won by Ghalib. And 11th of 12 when Lim’s Kosciuszko won a similar contest, but over 1,200m, on March 23.

Then again, and unless you are something like “Kosi”, you are not expected to put wins on the board with any sort of consistency.

That said, Sky Eye does not need to feel like he has been a letdown.

On the contrary, the overall picture is more than rosy.

With more than $500,000 in the kitty, Sky Eye has been a good horse to have in the yard.

Sky Eye, who has never been brilliant at those mid-week romps, was clearly out to prove something when winning his trial on April 2.

It was just his fourth win from 22 hit-outs going back to April 30, 2019.
