GOING: G

THE CMA 90TH ANNIVERSARY CUP (HANDICAP) 1000m

Track: GOOD      

Genuine pace headed by Alpha One who should kick up along the paint. MOTOMAN (10) makes his HK debut today after racing under the same name in Australia. He's looked good at the trials in readiness for this and Purton was on board for his most recent outing. The wide draw suits down the straight course and he can make an immediate impact on resumption. KA YING VICTORY (3) has found form again since dropping back to the short course, bringing up back-to-back victories last time out. He does rise in weight again, but he still has plenty of upside being a lightly raced 3YO. Can continue to improve and go close to winning again. HASTEN DELIGHT (2) drops back from 1200m today in what is his first run over the 1000m trip. He can find himself in a handy position from the alley and he's sure to be strong at the finish. FLYING HIGH (6) has closed off well his past couple and draws ideally out wide once again. Can be finishing strongly once more.
