GOING: G

CHAI WAN KOK HANDICAP 1200m

Track: GOOD      

Reasonable tempo with a few going forward, headed by Noble Deluxe. SKY SONG (1) steps into Class 5 for the first time, and he will be peaking third-up run. He fought on bravely for third in his last start and has the right draw here to settle just off the pace. He will be hard to hold out. SHINE BRIGHT (4) is also dropping in grade. He has the bonus of having Zac Purton taking over the reins, and despite the awkward barrier 10, he has enough early to overcome it. NOBLE DELUXE (7) is heading the right way with his form since dropping into Class 5, with his last start third-place finish confirming he’s close to a breakthrough. Each way value. HE WAS YOU (3) maps to receive a good run from his draw, and if ready, he can give this field a shake fresh up.
