Since finding his winning groove three starts ago on dirt, Hong Kong International Sale graduate Reliable Profit has worked his way up to Class 4, and a rating of 57, for trainer Danny Shum and jockey Hugh Bowman - who rides the six-year-old grey from barrier No 10.
"He's found his niche on the dirt and his last three wins have been great - he's enjoying his racing. I've ridden him since his last win and he's working well, so I'd expect a similar performance to what we've seen," Bowman said.
"This horse (Reliable Profit) actually appreciates the room and he does look after himself in the run, you just have to trust that if he is happy in the run that he will finish strongly, so I'm not deterred by the draw - it suits his racing style.
