R13 (13)	Tiger And Gold Chestnut J:TBC T:C H Yip	J: T:C H Yip	127	b	—	52	-	-	—	—	—	—	0.5	—	—
Shaped with promise in a recent 8.5f trial; blinkers fitted for official debut
R14 (14)	V Love You Bay J:TBC T:C S Shum	J: T:C S Shum	122	t	0-07	47	72	-	21d	—	—	—	0	—	—
Displayed first significant promise when seventh over C&D last month; more needed today
1 (7)	Lovero Bay J:Angus Chung(5) T:A S Cruz	J:Angus Chung(5) T:A S Cruz	135	t	0000-2	60	84	-	28d	—	—	—	7.5	—	—
Made disappointing start to HK career but last month's C&D second was much better
2 (8)	Dragon Star Chestnut J:Karis Teetan T:P C Ng	J:Karis Teetan T:P C Ng	130	v	211-72	55	75	-	21d	—	—	—	1.3	—	—
Ended 2023 with two C&D wins and went close here last month; must be considered
3 (11)	Gallant Crown Bay J:K C Leung T:David A Hayes	J:K C Leung T:David A Hayes	129	b	008-96	54	83	-	10d	—	—	—	1	—	—
Generally very disappointing since narrow C&D win last June
4 (1)	Win Win Fighter Bay J:L Hewitson T:K W Lui	J:L Hewitson T:K W Lui	129	b	593-21	54	76	-	21d	—	—	—	1	—	—
Stayed on well for ready C&D win last month; 5lb rise is manageable if race is run to suit
5 (10)	Chateau Le Peche Bay J:H T Mo(2) T:Jimmy Ting	J:H T Mo(2) T:Jimmy Ting	127	b	—	52	-	-	—	0W/0P 1 run	—	—	0.5	—	—
Has not shown enough in recent trials to warrant serious consideration on official debut
6 (4)	Galvanic Chestnut J:Brenton Avdulla T:C Fownes	J:Brenton Avdulla T:C Fownes	127	t	267-P0	52	82	-	17d	—	—	—	0.5	—	—
Second over 6f here in September but yet to build on that effort; upped in trip today
7 (2)	Kasa Papa Brown J:Jerry Chau(2) T:T P Yung	J:Jerry Chau(2) T:T P Yung	127	t	6766-4	52	83	-	34d	0W/0P 2 runs	0W/0P 1 run	—	0.5	—	—
0-16 in Hong Kong but ran quite well over C&D last month and remains on a good mark
8 (12)	Reach Goal b/br J:Alexis Badel T:P F Yiu	J:Alexis Badel T:P F Yiu	127	t	27940-	52	74	-	101d	—	—	—	1.5	—	—
Contender if judged on promising seasonal debut; off since lesser effort in October
9 (3)	Amazingteamwork Bay J:Matthew Poon(2) T:W K Mo	J:Matthew Poon(2) T:W K Mo	125	t	00	50	63	-	17d	—	—	—	0	—	—
Well beaten at triple-digit odds on first two starts (6f/7f); can't be recommended.
10 (9)	Sturdy Ruby Grey J:Zac Purton T:K L Man	J:Zac Purton T:K L Man	123	t	3383-5	48	80	-	21d	—	—	—	0	—	—
0-9 but placed four times over C&D; Zac Purton rides today; likely contender
11 (5)	Merchant Prince Bay J:M L Yeung T:Jamie Richards	J:M L Yeung T:Jamie Richards	119	tv	000-00	44	72	-	17d	—	—	—	0	—	—
Useful 2yo when trained in Australia but a well-beaten outsider on all eight local starts
12 (6)	Amazing Boy Bay J:Matthew Chadwick T:C W Chang	J:Matthew Chadwick T:C W Chang	117	tb	250-30	42	83	-	7d	—	—	—	0	—	—
Good third over C&D two starts ago but not one to rely upon
