R1 CHUNG ON HANDICAP

-


Sha Tin (M11) - Saturday, 13 October 2018

13:00 HK TIME

summary


There are eight horses making their debut in the first event and there is one in particular, BIG PARTY, who has impressed in his preparatory work and looks good enough to win on debut. He handled the straight course well in his most recent trial and has drawn high, which is still an advantage. It is obviously a very speculative race with so many debutants, but STRATHALLAN has had the benefit of a run and he should strip a little fitter for that effort. The track work of HAINAN STAR has been solid enough and a forward showing can be expected. QUADRUPLE DOUBLE appears to have strengthened-up in the off season and the increase in bodyweight for him is a major bonus as he looked a bit weak last term. Overall though, given the shear number of first-starter and the uncertainty of the map I don’t recommend heavy involvement, with Big Party worthy of a small win outlay.

speed


Not an easy race to map given the first starters, but BIG PARTY has shown enough to be one of the leaders alongside QUADRUPLE DOUBLE and STARTHALLAN. BELLA BABY and PERFECT MATCH might able to track the main speed.
