WU KAU TANG HANDICAP 1400m Track: FIRM |

|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Solid tempo set by Kingly Demeanor and Incredible Moment. CIRCUIT FIERY (11) recorded a strong overdue maiden win over 1400m at this track last time, getting there by 2 lengths. Drawn well close to the inside, and now that the penny has dropped, he can go right on with the job. YOUNG HORIZON (14) doesn't boast the best winning strike rate but ran a nice race last time out, finishing third and less than 2 lengths from the winner over 1400m at this track. He has each-way claims again. SUPER LOVE (2) finished eighth, beaten 3 lengths, last time out over this course and distance after coming from an outside draw. Winning rider Hugh Bowman sticks with him, and so do we. ENDEARED (1) drops down in class, and has is well placed over a suitable trip. Each way value. THE HEIR (5) turned in a better run last start, finishing a game fourth over 1400m at this track. Vincent Ho gets the best out of this six-year-old gelding, and with a draw advantage over his main rivals, he can figure in the top 3 this time.
