Race 1: L’Oreal Paris Handicap

6 Iron King was dominant when winning first-up last season by over three lengths. He’s back in Class 5 now and shapes as the one to beat as long as he can offset the wide gate. #8 Moon Peaks has form but needs to race in this grade. He’s done well at Conghua – catching the eye in a recent trial on the turf. He’ll take running down. #3 Smart Leader is having his fourth run back. He’s done well and should appreciate the step down to this grade. #2 Telecom Missile will also welcome racing in Class 5. Keep safe.

Race 2: Grace One Handicap

3 Noble One is racing well and caught the eye last start flashing from the tail of the field. He draws favourably here and does have a bit of a class-edge on a number of these, especially as he has always shown a bit of potential. #5 Packing Goodsing makes his debut. He’s done well ahead of his first-up run in Hong Kong. #1 War Weapon can turn his form around. He’s better than what he showed first-up when fading to ninth. #6 Trust Me looks to get his opportunity.

Race 3: Kate Tokyo Handicap

5 Baby Crystal steps out on debut and looks well placed to make it a winning one. His trials have been sound and his pairing with Zac Purton is a decent push with regards to his chances. He can win first-up. #4 Allgreektome caught the eye in a recent trial. He should be able to figure prominently on debut. #3 Sparkling Dolphin mixes his form but does his best racing down the straight at Sha Tin. Keep him safe. #2 Millennium Falcon has a bit of class and should be thereabouts.

Race 4: Canmake Tokyo Handicap

3 Good News returns first-up. He made an off-season stable switch but nevertheless, his recent trials have been sound and he looks wound-up to make an impression first-up. #7 Singapore Spirit is chasing back-to-back wins. He has since trialled well ahead of his return and his ascent up the handicap looks far from over. #9 All Is Good has been consistent across his short career in Hong Kong. A first win is coming. #5 Nicholson Returns has claims. He draws well and is a talent in his spot.

Race 5: Eleanor Handicap (2nd Section)

2 Invincible Missile did well first-up considering he settled at the tail field from a wide draw. Alexis Badel hops up now and he’s a big, big chance in this grade. He has a powerful finish and just needs a little bit of clear air late to win. #10 A Pal is doing everything right. He can take another step forward here and a first win would not surprise in the slightest. #12 Red Titan is tracking towards a first win. His assigned weight and Zac Purton’s booking will prove crucial. #8 Decrypt has claims. Keep safe.

Race 6: Ahava Handicap

9 Kasi Farasi has been hovering around a winnable mark for some time now. He’s done well this season and his run two starts ago was impressive. He can bounce back and if he’s at his best he can win. #4 Let’s Do It returned a solid fifth first-up this season. He’s tracking towards a first win which could easily arrive this weekend. #3 Function Patch closed well last start after travelling wide throughout. He can take another step forward here. #6 Accelerando is chasing back-to-back wins. Keep safe.

Race 7: G3 Sa Sa Ladies’ Purse Handicap

1 Beauty Joy rates very, very strongly here. He didn’t have the best trip throughout last start and should be able to improve with that effort under his belt. The hefty impost is of no concern, especially as a two-time Group 3 winner already. #3 Senor Toba closed well first-up. Expect he can take another step forward here with the rise in trip. #8 Turin Redsun slots in light and is better than his record suggests. He can surprise. #5 Excellent Proposal was strong first-up. He caught the eye and can improve over further.

Race 8: Suisse Programme Handicap (1st Section)

10 California Redwood caught the eye in a recent trial. He’s done well since his injury in May and does appear wound-up to contend strongly upon resumption, especially following a solid first season in Hong Kong. #6 Erimo is chasing back-to-back wins. He did well when winning last start and it wouldn’t surprise to see him win again. #7 Amazing Victory is chasing a hat-trick of wins. He’s flying at present and appears capable of firing once more. #4 Kasa Papa has claims. Keep safe.

Race 9: La Estephe Handicap

9 Beauty Eternal was nothing short of impressive first-up before winning with ease by two lengths after stepping away from gate 14. He’s a serious talent on the rise and this contest looks well within his grasp. #2 Super Fortune is looking to snap a pair of runner-up efforts. He’s in sound form and is favoured with the 10lb claim in action. #1 Nicconi County is racing well. He just needs to offset the wide draw. #12 Science Patch slots in light and should get his opportunity.

Race 10: Neogence Handicap

11 Charity Grace catches the eye after a luckless last outing. He has a stack of class and the mile suits him here. He has the turn of foot to steamroll this group, especially as his last run was a total forgive. #6 Galaxy Witness can continue his ascent. He’s returned in sound order and he should get every chance here close to the speed for Caspar Fownes. #14 Precise Express is a major threat. Expect him to be closing hard from the tail of the field. #1 C P Brave can improve second-up. Keep him safe at what should be big odds.
