A few sit handy but there won't be a great deal of early pressure. MAX QUE (8) will be a fit horse after charging home over 1400m at Sha Tin only 10 days ago. That run should have him tightened right up and back at this venue he looks a serious winning chance. SPEED DRAGON (1) draws perfectly in the pole position and should get every chance to control the race or settle handy. The 1650m is a touch short of his best, but he maps to receive a suitable run in transit, and he can take this out . SILVERY BREEZE (7) returns to his preferred track after solid efforts at Sha Tin recently. A wide draw is no help, but he comes to hand quickly, and should not be underestimated. LE ZONDA (12) finished last season with back-to-back wins over 1800m and looked a horse with plenty of upside. The shorter trip is the query, but he is still one of the top 4 chances. ARMOR GOLDEN EAGLE (11) resumes after a disappointing effort following 2 straight wins. If he returns anywhere near that winning form, he can have a say in the finish.
