BETTER FUTURE 1600M HANDICAP 1600m Track: GOOD |
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Ariel and Pray For Mir possess good early speed and will set a genuine tempo. THE HEIR (4) jumped favourite on resumption and was a little plain when beaten 2.5L. Now out to the mile which looks to suit, he gets the tongue tie on first time which is worth noting. Bowman remaining with the galloper suggests he's tracking well and he can end his winning drought today. SECOND TO NONE (6) has built a handy record so far despite a 3L defeat over 1400m recently. He was given a quiet trial recently and the rise to the mile for the first time is interesting. Can continue his strong run of form. FORTUNE SUPERSTAR (3) makes his HK debut today with Avdulla in the saddle, having partnered the 3YO in his last four trials. I like the fact he's at the mile first-up where he was successful in Ireland. Can make an immediate impact. QUANTUM PATCH (5) is ticking along nicely and is sure to be flashing home from the rear.
