Sha Tin Race 1 - Sunbird Griffin Plate
JEDI SPURS (6) has been very impressive at the trials coming into his debut and Brenton Avdulla sticks from his latest trials. He was a good winner in his latest heat over this course and distance and the exposed form here doesn't look too flash. Happy to put him on top from what we've seen. SHARP PLANET (4) was strong from the front here on debut after some handy trials, only caught late on the wet deck. He failed badly last time over 1200m, but back to this trip may hold the key. Wouldn't surprise to see him bounce back in a big way. QUANTUM WUKONG (7) comes back to 1000m today after settling near the tail and rattling home strongly over further last time out. Not to be discounted on the back of that performance. DRAGON GENERATION (2) looks next best.

Gelding by Dark Angel making his first appearance. Trialled on May 26 at Sha Tin over 800m and finished 12th. Fitter for recent trials but looks safely held.

Third race start today. At debut, settled back and ran on when 6th of 10 at this track on May 9 over 1000m, 3.5 len behind Spice Bag carrying 57kg at $14. Second-up 9th of 14 at this track on May 31 over 1200m, 6 len behind Rising World carrying 57kg at $55. Will jump at pretty long odds and deservedly so.

David A Hayes trained two-year-old gelding lining up for debut. Looked good in a recent trial win. A betting push will add to the confidence.
