GOING: G

SUSTAINABILITY 1400M HANDICAP 1400m

Track: GOOD      

Genuine tempo with Beauty Glory and Regal Gem up front. LIGHT YEARS CHARM (4) was a dominant winner here two back before stretching to the mile and going under as favourite most recently. He's turned in a nice trial since then and Purton now hops in the saddle. He returns to the scene of the crime and can bounce back to winning ways. HONG LOK GOLF (3) is a very exciting galloper on the rise, beating another smart one last time out who has won subsequently. He can put himself on the speed from the good draw and he's open to further improvement. Suspect we haven't seen the best of him yet and he can bring up back-to-back wins. ARMOUR WAR EAGLE (5) is hard to knock on recent form, winning two back before a narrow defeat here last time out as favourite. While he is likely to get back again, there looks to be good pace engaged and he'll be coming home with a wet sail. BALLISTIC WIN (12) couldn't repeat the dose last start but should be better suited to this distance. Can put his best foot forward.
