summary
There’s not much pace in this event and if Joao Moreira can take DYNAMIC EAGLE to the front then he will be hard to beat. He was most unlucky at his last outing, gets a rider upgrade and the wide gate might help him roll forward and then be able to dictate the pace when on or outside of the leader. He is however a Hong Kong maiden, but has been racing well, so the drop in drop in class has him well-placed to open his local account. SMART BABY is the form runner who seems to be thriving at present. He remains fit and well and although he drops back in distance for tonight’s race, he has to be given strong claims again. It will however, be a lot tougher this time considering the lack of tempo and the wide draw (and he did have a lovely run last time) that he’ll be navigated from. KING’S MAN is another that is close to scoring but he too gets back and is at the mercy others to set the pace of the race. RED ELYSEES maps nicely and as a result can figure in the finish given his form as well. I’m happy to back Dynamic Eagle here however.
