Race 1 - NGAU CHI WAN HANDICAP #1 Courier Magic ended last season with a fastfinishing third as he returned to Class 5, where he holds a strong record. His trial for return was encouraging and with Zac Purton taking the ride, he gets every chance to resume as a winner.

#2 Ninja Derby was given a peach first-up to lead all the way and while he's drawn widest this time, he has the pace to offset it and is capable of giving another sight. #11 The Way We Win produced his best run yet when a closing second at Sha Tin and with the inside draw aiding his pattern, he's one who can take another step forward. #6 Foremost Teddy looked in need of the run first-up and can strip fitter here, with a minor gear tweak possibly sparking a sharper effort second-up.

Race 2 - HUNG LUEN HANDICAP

#2 Northern Beast ticks plenty of boxes third-up, reuniting with Zac Purton and drawing ideally in barrier 1. This marks his fifth run back in Class 4 and he looks ready to strike. #9 No Other Choice pulled too hard last start and had nothing left late, but his first-up effort was much better and with a more controlled trip he can bounce back. #3 Chain Of Gold has been building nicely since dropping to this grade and his first-up run was a solid platform to improve from. #7 Prince Alex steps back to a more suitable trip and, while he'll need luck from the wide gate, he's shown he can finish off strongly when things fall into place.

Race 3 - FUNG MO HANDICAP

#1 Dancing Classics should take good benefit from his first-up run where he sat on the pace before fading late in a genuinely run race. He comes into this second-up with barrier 1, 5lb off his back thanks to Ellis Wong's claim, and maps to get all the favours. He's right in the mix. #5 Peridot also looks a likely improver off his first-up effort and is trending the right way with more experience, though he'll need some luck early from barrier 12. #3 Argento Ocean continues to improve with racing and the addition of cheekpieces plus a switch to the city circuit could unlock further improvement. #4 Owners' Sunshine steps up to 1200m after making solid ground late over the 1000m second-up and looks ready to peak now third-up.
