GOING: G

SHA TSUI HANDICAP 1400m

Track: GOOD      

Pace looks to be genuine with Good Luck Babe and Bling Bling Genius matching motors in advance of Winning Data and Winning Machine. THE HEIR (3) backed up his fresh-up win with another strong run, finishing close up in second place 3 weeks ago. He cops a wide draw, but in a weaker race, he looks well placed to repeat the dose. GOOD LUCK BABE (2) has drawn well and should settle in or near the lead, which suits his racing style. Tony Cruz has him heading in the right direction since he joined his stable, and he should go close to taking this out. WINNING MACHINE (12) was well-found in the market last start but faded late to finish fifth after setting a quick tempo in front. He will be peaking third up from a spell, and may even take them all the way this time. POSITIVE SMILE (10) needed his fresh run, and then improved quickly second-up, finishing fourth with a strong late run. He’s drawn wide again and will likely adopt similar tactics, and if the gaps come at the right time, he should be in the top 4. Include in all combinations.
