GOING: G

MURRAY HANDICAP 1800m

Track: GOOD     True  

Wah May Wai Wai has good early speed and can set a decent tempo. STORM RUNNER (3) is overdue after four straight minor placings, the latest when narrowly defeated over 2200m at this track after being prominent throughout. He has a better draw this time, and Zac Purton sticks with him. On top. BEAUTY MISSILE (7) is a 37-start maiden who finished fourth at his most recent outing over 1650m at Sha Tin All Weather. This looks like a nice race, so expect him to be right in the finish. PERFECT PAIRING (2) finished second at this track two runs back but wasn't helped by a wide gate last time over 2000m at Sha Tin, finishing 2.25 lengths back in eighth. Finds the right race this time and can turn things around, especially from a superior draw. LEATHER MASTER (12) is like most in this, doesn't boast the best winning strike rate but ran a strong race last time out, finishing fourth and less than a length from the winner over 2200m at this track. Likely improver with top-3 prospects.
