A strong gallop is likely with Telecom Fighters and Voyage Samurai taking up the running, closely attended by Soleil Fighter and Hong Lok Golf. HONG LOK GOLF (4) is an exciting prospect moving through the ranks, continuing his winning streak with a 0.5L victory at Sha Tin most recently. He comes to The Valley for the first time, but he looks well above average and should be close to the speed from the draw. Can make it four wins in-a-row. STEPS AHEAD (8) gets the blinkers on for the first time following a 0.8L defeat behind Hong Lok Golf most recently when setting the tempo. Atzeni hops in the saddle now and he's expected to give a bold sight from the front once again. VOYAGE SAMURAI (2) missed last start when over further at Sha Tin and looks suited back to this track and trip. He has plenty of early speed and should be able to cross from the tricky gate. Will take plenty of catching. SOLEIL FIGHTER (5) just missed here as favourite two back and looks well placed once again. Expected to be making his presence felt.
