Magnifique To Make Amends

July 5 Hong Kong (Sha Tin) form analysis

- 

RACE 1 (1,200M)

4 Motor looks ready to win after an unlucky second to The All Out last start over 1,000m, where he was held up for room late.

9 Field Marshal, now third-up, should get every chance and looks the likely leader from barrier 1.

12 Winning Champion is also having his third start and is heading the right way. Back to 1,200m looks ideal after a strong third over 1,000m.

1 Light Years Glory surprised with a debut win at big odds and is worth respecting again despite the draw.

RACE 2 (1,200M)

1 Gimme Five looks ready to break through. He resumes off a pair of solid trials and returns to a course and trip where he has placed twice from two starts.

6 Lucky Generations is unplaced from 12 but has run some encouraging races. Freshened with 35 days between runs and a nice trial under his belt, he is worth a look at each-way odds.

12 Flying Phantom has not broken through in 22 starts but is often thereabouts. He will drop out early and look to finish over the top.

10 Sonic Boom was caught wide throughout first-up but was not beaten far. He is capable off this mark and in a race lacking tempo, he can roll forward and make his own luck.

RACE 3 (1,200M)

1 Mr Energia returns to Class 4 after starting favourite in a deeper Class 3 contest, where he was shuffled back and did well to finish fourth. That form reads strongly for this and he should be ready to strike.

2 Fashion Legend is on the quick turnaround after a comfortable win over the extended mile. He now drops in trip, but two runs ago he stuck on well for third over this course and distance.

5 Sight Happy did not have the best run last start from a wide draw when seeing this track and trip for the first time. He can settle closer from a better gate and is worth another look.
