INTERCONTINENTAL LIMOUSINE HANDICAP 1200m Track: GOOD |

|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Sterling Wongchoy should set a strong clip up front. ONLY U (6) flew home to just miss on the All Weather surface two back before a 2.3L defeat on the turf at Sha Tin most recently. He gets Purton on board now and the Visors replace the Blinkers. Hasn't won for a while, but his recent runs show he's on the cusp and this presents as a winnable race. ORIENTAL SURPRISE (10) missed in a photo finish over this course and distance last week. On the quick turnaround here and he draws much better this time around. Rates highly on his latest effort and he can make his presence felt. STERLING WONGCHOY (3) comes back to 1200m today after a 3.3L defeat last time out at Sha Tin. He drops back to C5 today and Bowman hops on board having never missed the placings when riding. Has the speed to roll across from out wide and a better run is on the cards. CONCORDE STAR (5) can improve getting out in trip again today and he can bounce back to form.
