Track: GOOD      

Keen battle for the lead between Glory Elite, Speedy Fortune and Super Bonus in advance of Lucy In The Sky and Cervin. LUCY IN THE SKY (1) notched up his maiden win last time out in impressive fashion, scoring by 1.5L. He now draws an inside barrier and should get the run of the race under Teetan. He's an improving galloper and can continue his rise through the ranks. HAROLD WIN (5) makes his debut today on the back of some quality trials up at Conghua. He's shown good pace in his trials and won a 1200m heat on the March 28. Looks to have trialled the best of the debutants and he can make his presence felt on debut. GLORY ELITE (8) finished off 1.5L behind Lucy In The Sky last time out and has been right in the mix on a number of occasions. He can cross from the wide draw and give himself every chance on speed. Won't be far away again. GREAT SPIRIT (9) is better than he showed last time out and can bounce back with Blinkers on first time.

Recent form sound. Most recently tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 1.5 len at this track April 28 over 1200m defeating Glory Elite with 58kg at $4.30. The race before that took up a position near the tail 2nd of 12 at this track on April 14 over 1200m, 1.0 len behind King Miles carrying 57.5kg at $7.60. Confidence high so a repeat performance is on the cards.

Form hard to fault. Last start led but faded 2nd of 14 at this track on April 28 over 1200m, 1.5 len behind Lucy In The Sky carrying 56.5kg at $17. Before that raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 12 at this track on April 14 over 1200m, 1.5 len behind King Miles with 56.5kg at $12. Not far off the winner latest and looks a genuine hope.
