|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Solid tempo anticipated with Ka Ying Attack heading them off. KA YING ATTACK (9) dropped back to 1200m last start and was superb, bolting in by 2.3L and he's trialled well since. Back up to 1400m now is not an issue and Poon knows him well. Carries no weight here up in grade an profiles beautifully for a race like this. TOP DRAGON (6) comes right back to 1400m for the first time since tackling the HK Derby where he finished midfield. He was very effective at this track and trip before that and lands here with no weight on his back after jumping favourite and missing in a photo finish in this grade back in February. Can fire a shot on resumption. INVINCIBLE SHIELD (2) was solid off a freshen in G3 company and a better draw out in trip this time can see him sitting handier in the run. He boasts a strong second-up record and he can make his presence felt. PUBLIC ATTENTION (10) is knocking on the door and drops in weight despite a 1L defeat last start. Can make his presence felt again.
