  Race 1

#4 Dan Attack makes his stable debut for Douglas Whyte and has looked well in his trials. Barrier 2 gives him every chance to settle handy and win. #1 Triumphant Warrior is still searching for his first win but gets a golden opportunity from barrier 3 with Zac Purton aboard. This is his second start in Class 5 and he won’t have excuses. #9 You’remyeverything is on the seven-day turnaround after a luckless run over 1000m, where he was held up at a crucial stage. He hasn’t won in a long time but is a knockout chance. #2 My Intelligent drops back into Class 5 where he boasts one win and three seconds from five, and that profile keeps him right in the mix.

  Race 2

#7 Winning Diamond looks primed to strike third-up after being forced back from gate 11 in a slowly run race last time. With a better draw, he can settle closer and make his presence felt late. #4 Monarch County had no luck on his first look at Happy Valley, drawing the widest gate and never seeing daylight in the straight. He’s worth another look with a kinder run. #2 Thunder Prince has been knocking on the door since dropping to Class 4. He needs luck from a wide draw but his last two runs have been full of merit. #1 Find My Love is one from one in the grade and can be followed.
  Race 3

#1 Mega Bonus will push forward and try to make all, as is his pattern, and if left alone in front, which looks likely, he will take some running down. #6 Autumn Delight returns to the course and distance where he scored two starts ago. He maps to settle in a favourable spot and should be in the thick of it. #7 California Blitz responded well to the blinkers going on last start, producing his best run yet when finishing second to Wonderstar. He appears ready to go on with it. #2 Argento Ocean was a pass mark on debut after drawing wide and settling back, but made good ground late. His trials suggest he can settle closer.

  Race 4

#2 Fortunate Son stepped out for Cody Mo over 1400m at Sha Tin last start and didn’t have the smoothest run in transit. He’ll take improvement from that outing and looks suited stepping up in distance second-up. #1 S J Tourbillon is flying, having won two on the bounce in impressive fashion, and finds another winnable race if he holds that form. #5 Good Luck Win has had little luck of late and, while the 1800m poses a slight query, he’s placed well enough to be considered. #11 Atomic Beauty is untested over this trip but resumes off a pair of solid thirds over the extended mile and has claims if he sees it out.

  Race 5

#7 Honest Witness is trending the right way and did well from an outside gate last start, closing off for third. With a better draw, he can settle closer and continue his upward trajectory. #2 King Eccellente put the writing back on the wall with a strong third to Mega Bonus on the class drop and looks ready to strike. #12 Circuit Victory tries Happy Valley for the first time since breaking through in Class 5 three starts ago. He’s held his form since with back-to-back thirds in this grade and can give a sight. #1 Dancing Classics was an impressive debut winner and had clear excuses second-up. He’s worth forgiving and can bounce back.

  Race 6

#3 Chain Of Gold gets another chance with barrier 1 and Zac Purton key factors after he had excuses on his first run in Class 4 after pulling up with blood in the trachea. #1 Endued was rewarded for his consistency with a deserved win over 1400m at Sha Tin and remains well placed in Class 4. He looks capable of going back-to-back. #12 Wah May Wai Wai remains a maiden after 15 starts but his recent third in a fast-run race was a step in the right direction and gives him a base to work from. #8 Setanta tends to get back and rely on luck, but he’s come down in the ratings and if the race shape suits, he’s capable.

  Race 7

#3 Rocket Spade comes into a much better draw in barrier 4 after jumping from gate 11 in his last three starts, where he still managed to close off well. With a softer run, his winning chances receive a boost. #1 Definitive produced a sharp win last start after a change of tactics and remains a threat if he can reproduce that form. #6 Highland Rahy is a genuine pace influence who will roll forward and give a sight, though coming up with barrier 12 doesn’t do him any favours. #8 Prestige Good was a stylish Class 4 winner two starts back before being caught wide throughout back up in class. He’s much better than that run suggests and can bounce back.

  Race 8

#2 Raging Blizzard maps to get the perfect run and lost no admirers first-up when beaten less than a length by stablemate Wunderbar. He strips fitter and can go one better. #3 Beauty Waves brings similar form, having beaten Wunderbar last start in his first run for Tony Cruz. That effort rates well and he looks to have turned a corner with the stable change. #5 Kaholo Angel is flying and aims for a hat-trick of wins and a fourth victory this season. He’s holding his form and remains a major threat. #11 Aeris Nova steps out with a light weight from barrier 1 and, while more proven at Sha Tin, his form lines bring him into the mix.

  Race 9

#2 Kyrus Dragon had excuses first-up when drawn wide, settling back before being held up in the straight. There was merit to his closing effort and from barrier 1 with more tempo expected, he gets the right set-up. #1 Dragon Four Seas is thriving this season and his tactical versatility allows him to adapt to different race shapes. He is hard to knock. #9 Copartner Fleet is a progressive three-year-old chasing his second win as he rises into Class 3 for the first time. This will be a good test of where he stands ahead of next season. #5 Chill Buddy debuts for Ricky Yiu and will be in need of a run but his trials have been encouraging.
