THE HONG KONG JOCKEY CLUB TROPHY 2000m Track: GOOD True |

Meiner Ares should be able to comfortably find the front. GO LUCKY (6) is a talented colt who tackled tougher grade last time, finishing 4.5 lengths behind Reservation over 1600m in the G2 NEW ZEALAND TROPHY (NHK Mile Cup Trial) at Nakayama. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. The one to beat if backs up last effort. SARASVATI (8) is a promising galloper who saluted at her only run last prep 11 weeks ago over 2000m at Chukyo. Goes very well at this journey, boasting two wins from four starts and is expected to be in the finish. BE ON THE COVER (7) made considerable ground in the run home to finish third last start over 1800m at this track. All set to run well. CON FORZA (1) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid third at Niigata over 2000m. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time.
