Largely consistent in Hong Kong but has a modest strike-rate; not the percentage call
1 (1)	Simply Maverick Chestnut J:James McDonald T:P F Yiu	J:James McDonald T:P F Yiu	135	—	020285	78	91	-	21d	—	—	—	10.5	—	—
Did well to finish fifth over C&D from stall 12 last month; big player from stall 1 today
2 (5)	Hameron Chestnut J:C Y Ho T:K W Lui	J:C Y Ho T:K W Lui	131	—	337978	74	96	-	14d	—	—	—	6.6	—	—

Yet to strike form this season but at least he's back up to a more suitable trip today
4 (6)	Noisy Boy Bay J:Brenton Avdulla T:C H Yip	J:Brenton Avdulla T:C H Yip	130	—	652859	73	90	-	38d	0W/0P 1 run	0W/0P 1 run	—	7.3	—	—
Smart when based in Australia but made an underwhelming Hong Kong debut last month
5 (12)	Rising From Ashes Brown J:Antoine Hamelin T:C W Chang	J:Antoine Hamelin T:C W Chang	130	tb	650805	73	90	-	45d	—	—	—	5.8	—	—
Ran about as well as could have been expected over 6f last time; this trip suits better
6 (8)	Chain Of Gold Bay J:Zac Purton T:W K Mo	J:Zac Purton T:W K Mo	128	htp	313320	71	90	-	14d	—	—	—	13.2	—	—

C&D winner in October and still in good form; probably won't be far away
8 (9)	Glorious Journey Bay J:Matthew Chadwick T:F C Lor	J:Matthew Chadwick T:F C Lor	122	t	804852	65	92	-	56d	0W/1P 1 run	0W/1P 1 run	—	8.8	—	—

9 (2)	Setanta Bay J:L J Ferraris T:Mark Newnham	J:L J Ferraris T:Mark Newnham	122	tb	214437	65	91	-	63d	—	—	—	7.9	—	—
Began season with two good runs but was below form last time and remains on a tough mark
10 (4)	Ivy League Bay J:Lyle Hewitson T:Douglas Whyte	J:Lyle Hewitson T:Douglas Whyte	121	t	605097	64	97	-	42d	—	—	—	3.5	—	—
Yet to build upon his encouraging seasonal debut in September; needs to raise his game
11 (3)	Midori Fuji Bay J:Ben E Thompson T:David Eustace	J:Ben E Thompson T:David Eustace	120	tp	/4461-	63	-	-	1145d	—	—	—	13.3	—	—
