SHA TIN AW   08 Feb 2026
 
GOING: G

LUNG YAT HANDICAP 1200m

Track: GOOD      

Natural High, Zouper Fellow and Flowing Riches can set a genuine tempo. MR COOL (3) gets the winkers back on today after finishing strongly from back in the pack here 18 days ago. Purton remains in the saddle here and a better draw could see him sit closer in the run. Plenty to like off his past couple of efforts and he can get the job done this time. YEE CHEONG SPIRIT (9) has only had one run over this course and distance where he was a little disappointing. He hasn't been far away in recent efforts though and should land in a good position for Kingscote. Can be in the finish. HERBAL STAR (1) was best of the rest behind a dominant winner last time out and can be closing strongly once again. GLACIATED (8) disappointed last start but is better than that and remains under notice.
