Sha Tin Race 8

The Bochk Jockey Club Cup (G2)

Prize Money: $1,051,081

ROMANTIC WARRIOR (1) hasn't raced since the Dubai Turf where he was knocked off narrowly as the $1.28 favourite under McDonald. He was given a good break following that effort and he looks to be back on song judging by his latest trials. Class horse of the race who can return with a bang. VOYAGE BUBBLE (2) was disappointing in the Sha Tin Trophy first-up at a mile and has been back to the trials since. He moved well there under Purton who hops in the saddle for today's assignment. Maps for a lovely run and can bounce back to his best form. STRAIGHT ARRON (4) missed by 2L over the mile of the Sha Tin Trophy last time out but will appreciate getting up in distance now. Blinkers goes on first time today and a strong performance is anticipated. BEAUTY JOY (3) can improve on what he did last time out and has the quality to knock a race like this off.

Second-up. First-up after five months 12th of 14 at this track in the G2 Oriental Watch Sha Tin Trophy (Handicap) on October 19 over 1600m, 5.5 len behind My Wish carrying 61kg at $6.70. Previously second-up came from midfield and won by 3.5 len at this track G1 Champions & Chater Cup May 25 over 2400m defeating Rubylot carrying 57kg at $1.80. Disappointed first-up can run a much-improved race this time.

Third-up today and won third-up previously. Resuming 3rd of 14 at this track in the G2 Oriental Watch Sha Tin Trophy (Handicap) on October 19 over 1600m, 1.75 len behind My Wish with 53kg at $22. Second-up 9th of 13 at this track in the G3 Sa Sa Ladies' Purse on November 9 over 1800m, 5 len behind Encountered carrying 61kg at $17. Some query at the trip but he has the talent to knock a race like this off.
