GOING: G

MA ON SHAN HANDICAP 1200m

Track: GOOD      

Sea Sapphire and Patch Of Watch can burn across from wide out and set a strong tempo. NOBLE FANS (9) just missed two back before jumping favourite here last start and never getting a clear crack at them, beaten 2.5L. He's been kept up to the mark with a nice trial recently and his form last campaign stacks up highly. Can get the job done this time with clear running. KA YING RESILIENCE (7) got the job done at the end of last season in good fashion, scoring by 0.3L at this track and trip. He's trialled well coming into this and the draw won't matter with his racing pattern. Can sit on the speed and will be strong to the line. SEA SAPPHIRE (8) is another who has early speed and can cross from his wide draw. He had a quiet trial coming into this for Eustace and the visors replace the blinkers today. Atzeni hops on board now and he can make his presence felt. COLOURFUL WINNER (10) gets the blinkers on for the first time today and makes plenty of appeal.
