GOING: G

LUCKY STAR HANDICAP 1600m

Track: GOOD      

Pace looks to be genuine with Ping Hai Comet and Pearl Of Pang's matching motors in advance of Colourful Gan and Bucephalas. BUCEPHALAS (1) has been disappointing in his past couple, though he may have been looking for the drop in grade which he gets here. The wide draw is a query, but getting back out to the mile looks to suit and he was an impressive winner the last time he raced in this grade. Can bounce back to form. FOREVER FOLKS (5) was far too good on the All Weather surface last time out, running away with an impressive victory. Back to the mile and back onto the turf course here, though he rates highly on what he did last time out. Just needs to run up to that level back on the turf. FLYING BOOM (10) looks ready to step out to the mile now and can make his presence felt. MASTER TRILLION (3) creates plenty of interest on the class drop.
