Sha Tin Race 5 - Lung Hang Hcp (C4)
CIRRUS SPEED (12) earns top billing after scoring first-up at this track, beating Falcon Hunter by a length in C5 company. The rise to C4 is the obvious new task, but he gets in with weight relief and profiles nicely up in grade. Can find the front and will take catching with no weight on his back. WOLF COMING (2) is the major danger after being beaten only a neck by Kol when held up until the 250m. Rates highly on the back of that effort and has to come into calculations. SMILING SKY (6) was big odds in the same race yet finished fifth, beaten just over a length, which was a sharp improvement on his debut run at the end of last saeason. Can sit handy from the outset again and put his best foot forward. HAPPY SPECIAL (4) also comes through that Kol race, finishing fourth after being headed late, and his second-start improvement under Atzeni gives him a genuine chance to keep building.

Returns from a lengthy spell after being last at Happy Valley, beaten over 16 lengths, and he had also been well beaten by 24 lengths at this venue the run prior. He is a proven track-and-trip winner and Derek Leung has won on him, but the form before the break was too poor to overlook.

Hit the line hard when second at this track a fortnight ago, beaten a neck by Kol after being held up until the 250m. He had also run a sound sixth on the All-Weather when beaten just over two lengths in a well-bet part of the market. Track-and-distance win record is the query, but he is a major player.

Makes his debut with no race form to anchor the assessment, so the market may be the best guide. The 1kg apprentice claim is a small help, but the wider barrier and the trainer's limited recent debut record leave him with plenty to show at his first public race start. Wide draw makes this a testing first assignment.

Improved sharply when fourth at this track a fortnight ago, beaten just over a length by Kol after being headed inside the final 150m. That was a much better effort than his 11th on debut, and he beat Smiling Sky while finishing behind Wolf Coming in the same form line. Lightly raced and has a genuine chance to keep lifting.

Returns from a lengthy spell after finishing sixth in a GRIFFIN over 1000m at this track, beaten nine and a half lengths after fading late. He had been last at this venue the run prior, so the exposed form is mixed. Lightly raced enough to improve, but more a place hope.

Made a far better return when fifth at this track, beaten just over a length by Kol after starting at big odds. His debut had been plain, finishing second last behind Lucrative Eight, but this was a sizeable step in the right direction. Apprentice claim helps and he looks a genuine improver with winning claims.

Resumes after eight months off with just one race start behind him, a seventh at this track when beaten five lengths by Circuit Champion after making some ground in the straight. The 3kg claim helps and he is a half-brother to G1 winner Pinstriped, so there is upside in the profile. Strong pedigree and 3kg claim give him a place profile if he has developed.

Returns from a lengthy spell after closing into third at this track, beaten just over three lengths by Packing Glory after being held up for clear running near the 200m. The start prior was a plain second last over 1400m, so the profile is uneven. Has minor claims, but the previous run was plain and he must do more.

Resumes after eight months off following an 11th at this track, beaten just under five lengths by Papaya Brose after being pushed along wide into the straight. He had been favourite at Happy Valley the start prior but finished eighth, beaten just under six lengths. Has placed at 1200m, but the recent winning case is hard to build.

Returned with a solid third at this track, beaten just under two lengths by Apex Glory after having every chance at the top of the straight. His previous run was an eighth here, beaten just under three lengths, so the recent form is respectable without being dominant. The win is still elusive, but he profiles as a sound minor hope.

Was only seventh over 1000m at this track last start, beaten just over four lengths by Flowing Riches, after coming under pressure late. Two back he was better when third, beaten a length by Ruby Thrive, so there is some race-fit grounding.

Broke through first-up at this track, winning a Class 5 by a length from Falcon Hunter after rolling along and working home evenly. He rises to Class 4, but the weight relief, inside barrier and proven track-and-trip record give him a strong platform. Class rise is there, but the setup keeps him on top.
