4 Sonic Boom steps out for his second start back in Class 5 and will appreciate an inside draw (4), after being caught wide from a poor barrier last time yet still managing third.
2 Silver Destiny will be a favoured runner as he makes his Class 5 debut. He impressed in a barrier trial, indicating he is ready to fire.
3 Speedy Fortune returns to his preferred track and distance after three encouraging 1,000m runs at Happy Valley.
6 Woodfire Champ had no luck chasing consecutive wins last time, caught wide early and unable to be fully tested late. A better draw gives him a chance to bounce back.
RACE 2 (1,800M)
2 Soaring Bronco finally lobs into Class 5 after many tries at the bottom of Class 4 where he had plenty of chances to break through. Barrier 2 and the booking of James McDonald provide him with every opportunity to secure his maiden win.
1 Go Go Go will be out of trouble in the run from barrier 1, with apprentice Ellis Wong engaged to ride.
8 Harry's Hero scored impressively at Sha Tin on Sunday and remains appealing.
6 Precision Goal was impressive last start winning at 1,650m. He should appreciate the extra distance.
RACE 3 (1,200M)
7 Dragon Air Force endured a tough run last time when racing keenly early and finding traffic in the straight, yet managed a creditable fourth. With a cleaner run, he looks poised to break through.
