Easier Task For Bundle Award

April 20 Hong Kong (Sha Tin) form analysis

- 

RACE 1 (1,650M) 12 So Awesome was used up on the pace last start but only felt the pinch late, checking in less than two lengths away in fourth. From barrier 2 he should be able to secure a sweet run in transit.

2 Meepmeep is edging closer to a maiden win since dropping into this grade last start. He can take a step forward at his second attempt in the cellar grade.

10 Family Fortune ran his best race yet when resuming with a third behind the in-form Regency Happy Star, following a solid trial.

11 Silver Destiny has switched stables from Dennis Yip to Frankie Lor. He has put in some good efforts since sliding into Class 5 and is one who can surprise.

RACE 2 (1,400M) 3 Top Dragon stepped up to 1,400m last start, but it was a run best forgotten given he had plenty of excuses in transit. He has trialled well since and can improve sharply with Zac Purton jumping aboard from barrier 3.

2 Gallant Epoch also comes off a disappointing effort where he led and weakened into last at Happy Valley, but a return to this course and distance suits better and he can prove hard to run down.

11 Strathpeffer has drawn wide in recent runs and has not had much go his way, yet continues to finish close up. He should map much kinder from barrier 7 this time.

8 Jubilant Winner resumed with a strong late burst into third over 1,200m and has produced solid efforts over 1,400m previously.

RACE 3 (1,200M) 1 Solid Shalaa will be suited by the amount of early speed on paper. He resumed off a lengthy break with a fast-finishing second, which sets him up nicely for a promising second-up performance.

7 Golden Friendship lines up for his fourth career start and has been performing well without placing. A more patient ride will give him a chance to improve into the money.
