Sha Tin (M16) - Wednesday, 31 October 2018
20:15 HK TIME
summary
KING GENKI looks like he could be a good bet in this race. He was nearly the victim of a slow tempo at his last outing when he was just successful, but still improved his overall record on this course and distance to three wins from seven starts. Effectively, he goes up a grade and carries 0.5kg less, but benefits with a leading senior rider on board this time albeit in an event that has more depth. CALCULATION will appreciate the step up to a mile and his form on this surface is excellent. His course and distance record 2:1-1-0-0 reflects this and he’s drawn to sit close to the leaders. The “blowout” chance here could be WINNING FAITH, he won on a synthetic track in Australia before coming to Hong Kong and I haven’t minded the way he’s trialed and worked on the dirt here. There seems like there’ll be enough pace in this event, and his recent trial against GLORIOUS ARTIST was good work. Winning Faith will be worth a small outlay even though Glorious Artist is two from two so far on this specialist surface.
