I also suspect this may be an Eyebrowed Thrush. There seems to be a lot of white in the area under and in front of the eye, the bill seems less heavy than some Brown-headed Thrush on OBC images, and the birds seems rather slim overall. However, I don't really see any mark that is completely definitive.

Did anyone see the underwing coverts? That would settle the issue.

Brazil shows the underwing coverts of Brown-headed Thrush being decidedly pale while Eyebrowed is greyish.

It turns out I actually have a photo of a Brown-headed Thrush in flight (taken at Po Toi) but it doesn't match Brazil at all!

So maybe this isn't a useful point.
