Debutant; made some money in the sales ring but limited appeal based on trial evidence
1 (4)	Metro Warrior Bay J:K C Leung T:David A Hayes	J:K C Leung T:David A Hayes	135	b	980142	59	85	-	16d	—	—	—	12.3	—	—

Promise in trials and underlined the impression with C&D debut fifth; one to note
7 (10)	Dragon Air Force Bay J:Karis Teetan T:P F Yiu	J:Karis Teetan T:P F Yiu	128	t	—	52	-	-	—	—	—	—	0.5	—	—
Debutant; has demonstrated ability in trials; clearly talented so market check advised

Debutant; dam won a 6f Group 3 in NZ; displayed ability in both trials; one to consider
10 (1)	Super Treasure Bay J:H T Mo(2) T:C W Chang	J:H T Mo(2) T:C W Chang	128	—	—	52	-	-	—	—	—	—	0.5	—	—

Triple C&D winner; back to winning ways in Happy Valley Class 5 in April; each-way claims
14 (8)	Merchant Prince Bay J:Alexis Badel T:Jamie Richards	J:Alexis Badel T:Jamie Richards	117	tv	00-008	41	74	-	145d	—	—	—	0	—	—
