VALUE BET – ARTHUR’S KINGDOM ridden by A. Badel
BEST BET – WUNDERBAR ridden by Z. Purton
07:00 – Race 1 | Class 5 | 1650m
Selections: 5/7/13
The Douglas Whyte trained COLOURFUL BARON won well on this course last time. He drops back to a mile and can make it quick back-to-back wins. VULCANUS was beaten narrowly on turf last time and will be looking to make amends. JOYFUL CHAMPION is next in line.
07:30 – Race 2 | Class 4 | 1200m
Selections: 1/3/5
JUNEAU PRIDE finished a nose behind Patch Of Cosmo on debut. He would have gained from the experience and will have plenty of followers. CIRCUIT JOLLY and ETALON OR finished close-up behind the top selection in the race mentioned above and are both major threats.
08:00 – Race 3 | Class 4 | 1200m
Selections: 12/1/5
PATCH OF TIME won his last start narrowly over this course and distance. He remains in Class 4 and should be competitive. MASTER TRILLION caught the eye on debut when defeating Spicy Spangle. He is trying an extra furlong and can give the top selection a good run for his money.
08:30 – Race 4 | Class 4 | 2000m
Selections: 14/8/9
ARTHUR’S KINGDOM finished a couple of lengths behind CHARITY GAIN last time. He is 3kgs better off at the weights and definitely represents decent each-way value for Hong Kong racing pundits. The grey JOYFUL PROSPERITY won his last start with ease and the booking of Zac Purton is a big plus.
09:00 – Race 5 | Class 4 | 1650m
Selections: 8/3/13
FOREVER FOLKS finished 0.4 lengths behind EXCEL WONGCHOY last time. The pair meet on the same weight terms and are both suited to the All-Weather. ACA POWER has fair recent form on this course. He steps up to a mile and can feature if seeing out the extra ground on offer.
09:35 – Race 6 | Class 2 | 1000m
Selections: 3/5/6
WUNDERBAR has an impressive record of 6 wins from 7 starts. He drops back to 1000m and should extend his winning streak. TOMODACHI KOKOROE finished just under a length behind the talented Copartner Prance last time. He will strip a much fitter horse and can give the top selection a good run for his money.
10:05 – Race 7 | Class 2 | 1400m
Selections: 6/7/11
BOTTOMUPTOGETHER finished a neck behind Wunderbar and it will be interesting to see if the form is given a boost in Race 6. SUNLIGHT POWER finished 1.2 lengths behind DROMBEG BANNER last time. He is 2.5kgs better off at the weights and can turn the tables on his recent conqueror.
10:40 – Race 8 | Class 4 | 1400m
Selections: 5/7/14
JUBILANT WINNER is coming along the right way. He finished a neck behind Stellar Swift last time and can notch up his first career win. LEGEND ST PAUL’S produced an eye-catching debut performance. He is drawn best of all and should come on nicely with that run under the belt.
11:15 – Race 9 | Class 3 | 1200m
Selections: 4/12/2
SAVVY BRILLIANT won well last time and it is encouraging that Zac Purton has kept faith in the ride. SUPER INFINITY finished second behind the progressive Packing Hermod last time. He comes in with a handy galloping weight and should give another good account of himself. SOLID IMPACT is nicely weighted with apprentice Britney Wong aboard and can feature.
11:50 – Race 10 | Class 3 | 1600m
Selections: 3/9/7
VOYAGE SAMURAI finished a neck behind PRAY FOR MIR last time. He is 1.5kgs better off at the weights which should be enough to turn the tables. FALLON and STAR MAC dead-heated for second last time. The pair meet on similar weight terms and there shouldn’t be too much separating them in the run down to the line.
