GALAXY PATCH TO GET ROLLING

RACE 1 (1,200M) 2 Santorini can bounce back and win, especially from barrier 1 with Hugh Bowman taking over. He needed his first-up run, and the fast pace on the speed did not suit.

5 Circuit Jolly, a debutant from the David Hayes yard, could make an immediate impact. His trials have shown promise, and Zac Purton in the saddle signals readiness for a strong first-up showing.

1 Patch Of Cosmo was impressive in winning a race of this nature, a Restricted Class 4 for three-yearolds, storming home from a wide draw to win on the line.

9 Northern Fire Ball ran boldly on debut, just missing an all-the-way win. Should be competitive again.

RACE 2 (1,200M) 8 Super Infinity steps up to Class 3 after an impressive first-up win.

He still has room for improvement, and his light weight will be an asset as he faces stiffer competition.

5 Savvy Brilliant ran a decent race on debut over 1,000m, finishing well despite early interference and being held up in the final stages.

Improvement expected second-up.

6 Super Fortune holds a key advantage with his natural early speed, and as the likely leader on paper, he will be tough to reel in.

2 Captain Win brings solid form, having placed behind some talented runners recently, and should find this a slightly easier task.

RACE 3 (2,000M) 2 Awesome Fluke ran a solid third over a mile. Form is proven over longer trips, and he steps up in trip.

4 Supreme Agility is yet to place in five Hong Kong runs, which is surprising given his honest efforts and narrow defeats. Untested over 2,000m, but merits consideration.
