Sha Tin - Hong Kong International Races Dec. 10/11 (time-zone dependent)

[Kitan]

Race 1:
#4 Jing Jing Win: Two for two, looks a star.

Race 2:
#13 Easy Hedge: Burnt money this season but had a rough go in the straight last time and looks to be more value this time.
#1 Ishvara: 6 2-4-0 record in this class, gets the 10 lbs apprentice.
#8 Ho Ho Feel
#11 Allcash

Race 3:
#2 Royal Elite: Trialled better with shades on, picks up Moore.
#11 Beat The Clock: Beaten by a wide trip without cover last out but is drawn wide again.
#5 Booming Delight: Bright 3yo form from the UK and has trialled well for his HK debut.
#12 Harbour Nova: Unlucky in his last turf try and gets an extra 200m this time around. Has to overcome gate 14.
Also using 1, 3, and 10 underneath.

Race 4:
#2 Silverwave: Much improved as a 4yo and never looked comfortable in the Arc, especially on the final turn. Switches back to Guyon and is overlooked in the betting.
#1 Highland Reel: Globetrotter is consistent on fast ground but will be odds-on.
#10 Benzini: 7yo in the form of his life and that was a strong win in the Brisbane Cup.
#11 Eastern Express

Race 5:
#9 Red Falx: Japanese look dangerous here and there doesn't appear to be a local standout. Really flourished since switching back to the turf and has a bold late kick.
#6 Big Arthur: Given no chance in the stretch last out but has to overcome a wide draw.
#2 Lucky Bubbles: Most consistent of the locals and will be flying late.
#8 Signs of Blessing: Don't usually like the Euro's in this spot but he has strong form and is proven around a bend.

Race 6:
#5 Dashing Fellow: Back to a class and distance that suits. Worth a shot.

Race 7:
#12 Satono Aladdin: Has had traffic trouble in all 3 G1 tries at a mile. Ran poor here last year but that was over 10f. Looks an overlay.
#13 Sun Jewellery: Only poor run came last year over 10f when also vetted before the start. Improved with both runs this season and is primed for this third-up.
#5 Beauty Only: Consistent but drawn wide
#14 Joyful Trinity: Improving runner will be closing hard late.
#1 is lacking fitness for this, #6 was unlucky last out but is a huge underlay for me...

Race 8:
#2 Maurice: Again the Japanese look dominant and could sweep this race. This one is a star and rightfully the one to beat.
#5 Staphano: Always takes a few starts to get into his best form and runs third-up here.
#6 Lovely Day: Had to work hard from the widest draw last out. Should get a better trip here.
#12 Queen's Ring

Race 9:
#4 Clever Beaver: Taken a little freshening off that first up run but has trialled well.
#9 Mr Stunning: Looks to be odds-on once again off a tough trip last out.
#5 Let Us Win: Aus-G2 winner is prepared well for HK debut.
#11 Hit The Bid

Race 10:
#4 Santa Fe Sun: Back down to a rating at which he's been most competitive recently. Ran well enough first-up and copped a terrible trip last time out. Bombs away.
#5 Pakistan Star: Maybe the most talked about runner in HK but he's burnt money in his last two.
#8 Apollo's Choice
#11 Little Dragon

Good luck!
