Shock C&D winner in March but two lesser efforts have followed; others preferred
R16 (16)	Legend Star Bay J:TBC T:C S Shum	J: T:C S Shum	128	t	—	52	49	-	28d	—	—	—	0.5	—	—
Always towards rear when a big-priced outsider for last month's debut (6f)
1 (3)	Rezeki Bay J:Hugh Bowman T:D J Hall	J:Hugh Bowman T:D J Hall	135	p	/-9885	59	69	-	50d	—	—	—	2.3	—	—
0-4 in HK but drops in grade after very respectable C&D fifth in March; one to consider
2 (12)	Across Da Universe Chestnut J:Ellis Wong(7) T:P C Ng	J:Ellis Wong(7) T:P C Ng	134	t	605-05	58	78	-	21d	—	—	—	2	—	—
Ran quite well when dropped to this grade last month but has an awkward draw today
3 (13)	Mr Cool Brown J:Karis Teetan T:F C Lor	J:Karis Teetan T:F C Lor	134	t	31	58	66	-	28d	—	—	—	14.1	—	—
Unexposed 3yo who finished well to score over 7f last month; has more to offer
4 (9)	C Yeah Bay J:K C Leung T:Jimmy Ting	J:K C Leung T:Jimmy Ting	133	b	10-009	57	64	-	21d	—	—	—	1.8	—	—
Unable to land a significant blow on any of first four Hong Kong starts

Raced too freely in the lead last time; has claims if judged on previous close third here
6 (4)	Shamus Storm Bay J:Zac Purton T:David A Hayes	J:Zac Purton T:David A Hayes	130	—	2-83	54	72	-	28d	—	—	—	4.5	—	—
Placed over C&D on two of his first three starts; Purton rides today; likely contender
7 (8)	Gor Gor Brown J:Ben E Thompson T:Jamie Richards	J:Ben E Thompson T:Jamie Richards	128	t	—	52	-	-	—	—	—	—	0.5	—	—
Makes official debut after some underwhelming recent trials; best watched
8 (6)	Celestial Patch Bay J:Andrea Atzeni T:David Eustace	J:Andrea Atzeni T:David Eustace	126	t	08	50	64	-	28d	—	—	—	0	—	—

10 (14)	Sight Dreamer Brown J:James Orman T:J Size	J:James Orman T:J Size	124	t	3004	48	76	-	28d	—	—	—	0.9	—	—
Stayed on for fourth over 6f here last month and looks well worth another crack at 7f
11 (11)	Autumn Delight Bay J:Brenton Avdulla T:C Fownes	J:Brenton Avdulla T:C Fownes	122	t	00-5	46	67	-	14d	—	—	—	0	—	—

11-race maiden who seems to have gone off the boil lately

Hinted at possible return to form on latest outing and remains well handicapped
14 (5)	Circuit Mighty Bay J:Britney Wong(10) T:K L Man	J:Britney Wong(10) T:K L Man	117	tb	-50703	41	84	-	21d	—	—	—	3	—	—
