R13 (13)	Fast As Rocket Chestnut J:TBC T:W Y So	J: T:W Y So	127	t	0-U	52	55	-	45d	—	—	—	0.5	—	—
Posted a disappointing effort on debut and unseated his rider when stumbling in January
R14 (14)	Silver Spurs Bay J:TBC T:C Fownes	J: T:C Fownes	127	t	—	52	-	-	—	—	0W/0P 1 run	—	0.5	—	—
Slowly away in his last two barrier trials; will need to have that sorted for his debut
1 (3)	You'remyeverything Bay J:Karis Teetan T:A S Cruz	J:Karis Teetan T:A S Cruz	135	tb	7-0022	60	82	-	13d	—	—	—	2.5	—	—
Has been suggesting a return to the winners enclosure is near; one to be taken seriously
2 (7)	Run Run Timing Bay J:Harry Bentley T:C H Yip	J:Harry Bentley T:C H Yip	134	t	33-18	59	76	-	33d	—	—	—	2.3	—	—
Comfortable winner over C&D in January; not so good latest but remains early days
3 (6)	Chateauneuf Bay J:Zac Purton T:David A Hayes	J:Zac Purton T:David A Hayes	133	t	1	58	72	-	27d	—	—	—	12	—	—
Justified market favouritism on debut; could make a mockery off his subsequent 6lb rise
4 (2)	Super Highway Bay J:Angus Chung(5) T:F C Lor	J:Angus Chung(5) T:F C Lor	129	tv	030-89	54	81	-	27d	—	—	—	1	—	—
Dual C&D winner last season but has been rather patchy in six starts this term
5 (12)	Circuit Fiery Bay J:Jerry Chau(2) T:T P Yung	J:Jerry Chau(2) T:T P Yung	127	—	—	52	-	-	—	—	—	—	0.5	—	—
Has shown only moderate ability in local trials so probably best watched from a wide draw
6 (9)	Golden One Bay J:Matthew Poon(2) T:P F Yiu	J:Matthew Poon(2) T:P F Yiu	127	tv	9	52	65	-	27d	—	—	—	0.5	—	—
42-1 outsider on last month's debut and ran accordingly; remains a longer-term prospect
7 (8)	Ruby Sailing Chestnut J:Brenton Avdulla T:K L Man	J:Brenton Avdulla T:K L Man	124	t	92-473	49	78	-	30d	—	—	—	0	—	—
Knocking firmly on the door since tackling handicap company; can make his presence felt
8 (10)	Crazy Treasure Bay J:Ben E Thompson T:Mark Newnham	J:Ben E Thompson T:Mark Newnham	122	b	0-095	47	71	-	20d	—	—	—	0	—	—
Heading in the right direction; may battle it out for the minor honours
9 (1)	Sea Sapphire Chestnut J:Alexis Badel T:P C Ng	J:Alexis Badel T:P C Ng	120	e/s	055-06	45	79	-	27d	—	—	—	0	—	—
Has made a pleasing start to his HK career; can certainly threaten the places
10 (4)	Sight Victory Bay J:Antoine Hamelin T:J Size	J:Antoine Hamelin T:J Size	119	he	000-55	44	74	-	33d	—	—	—	0	—	—
Fared better since the turn of the year; further progression gives him an each-way shout
11 (11)	Commanding Missile Bay J:H T Mo(2) T:C W Chang	J:H T Mo(2) T:C W Chang	115	hb	90-000	40	71	-	27d	—	—	—	0	—	—
Unlucky not to strike on September's seasonal debut but has gone off the boil since
12 (5)	Joy For You Bay J:M L Yeung T:Y S Tsui	J:M L Yeung T:Y S Tsui	115	—	0089-0	40	69	-	63d	—	—	—	0	—	—
Yet to trouble the judge in six career starts; ease in grade is imminent
