Placed on turf recently but is not very reliable and this 6yo has never run on dirt before
1 (14)	Talents Ambition Grey J:Hugh Bowman T:Mark Newnham	J:Hugh Bowman T:Mark Newnham	135	b	13513-	78	90	-	39d	—	—	—	19.9	—	—
Dual C&D winner last year and stayed on for third here last month; likely contender again
2 (9)	Simply Maverick Chestnut J:L J Ferraris T:P F Yiu	J:L J Ferraris T:P F Yiu	134	—	2854-0	77	92	-	25d	—	—	—	6.8	—	—
Below form on latest turf start but has possibilities if suited by this switch to dirt
3 (11)	Ching Chestnut J:Brenton Avdulla T:C W Chang	J:Brenton Avdulla T:C W Chang	132	—	5860-0	75	94	-	14d	—	—	—	6.3	—	—
Recent turf form has been underwhelming and he still needs to prove himself on dirt
4 (10)	M Unicorn Bay J:C Y Ho T:C Fownes	J:C Y Ho T:C Fownes	128	et	99546-	71	90	-	31d	—	—	—	5.3	—	—

5 (2)	Young Brilliant Bay J:Angus Chung(3) T:C H Yip	J:Angus Chung(3) T:C H Yip	128	b	01791-	71	85	-	39d	—	—	—	18.3	—	—
Made all for surprise C&D win last month but 6lb rise probably leaves him vulnerable
6 (13)	Fighting Machine Brown J:Zac Purton T:P C Ng	J:Zac Purton T:P C Ng	126	v	14222-	69	93	-	39d	0W/0P 1 run	0W/0P 1 run	—	17.8	—	—
Second over C&D on last three appearances and Zac Purton is back on board today

Effective on this surface but ended 2024 in poor form
8 (1)	Perfect Team Brown J:Alexis Badel T:C Fownes	J:Alexis Badel T:C Fownes	125	t	66430-	68	93	-	39d	0W/0P 1 run	—	—	6.6	—	—
Disappointed last time but this largely consistent 6yo was in the frame twice beforehand
9 (6)	Glorious Success Bay J:Karis Teetan T:David Eustace	J:Karis Teetan T:David Eustace	124	et	5123-2	67	88	-	14d	0W/0P 1 run	0W/0P 1 run	—	9.3	—	—
Placed on all three HK starts (7f-1m, turf); taken very seriously on this dirt debut
10 (7)	Must Go b/br J:Antoine Hamelin T:J Size	J:Antoine Hamelin T:J Size	123	et	2852-3	66	91	-	14d	—	—	—	7	—	—
