R7 AMBITIOUS DRAGON HANDICAP
-
Sha Tin (M55) - Sunday, 17 March 2019
16:00 HK TIME
summary
It is pretty hard to take on FULL OF BEAUTY who is bidding to post his fifth consecutive victory in this, his first preparation. He rises in grade but drops in weight (2.5kg) and his figures suggest he can win again. That said, there is some decent opposition in this one and you’d want to be a bit wary taking the long-odds-on price he’s likely to be. I couldn’t mark him as short as the market will have him though however I don’t want to make a really strong play against him either. SUPER HOPPY was ridden too close last time but could bounce back with a more conservative ride. He’s a bit of a trick as when he’s used to hold valuable position early he just doesn’t seem to be able to finish his races off as effectively. FLAT HEAVEN posted some pretty good numbers when scoring at the city circuit last time and I expect that a Sha Tin sprint would suit him every bit as much. This is all about the favourite and how low do you go? Personally I’d be inclined to watch, if you want to bet, then bet small.
