THE HONG KONG JOCKEY CLUB COMMUNITY TROPHY (HANDICAP) 1600m Track: GOOD |
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Plenty of pace likely from Amazing Duck, Absolute Honour and Mega Mastermind battling for the lead from Nyx Gluck. ABSOLUTE HONOUR (11) steps up to the mile again today after being beaten as the race favourite over 1400m here last time out. He draws inside and Purton remains in the saddle. He's racing well without winning and this presents as a golden opportunity to bounce back to winning ways. AMAZING DUCK (9) has placed 2/4 at this track and trip and looks well placed coming through a strong form race over 1400m last time out. He can roll across from out wide and the claim of Yuen comes in handy. Wouldn't surprise to see him up front from the outset and he'll be hard to run down. PRESTIGE RICKY (6) is better than he showed last time out when he pulled up with an issue. He's trialled nicely since and Orman sticks from that trial. Tongue tie goes on now and a better effort is on the cards. MEGA MASTERMIND (3) led and won last start and it wouldn't surprise to see him repeat the dose.
