R13 (13)	Gor Gor Brown J:TBC T:Jamie Richards	J: T:Jamie Richards	129	t	9	52	56	-	17d	—	—	—	0.5	—	—
Showed nothing more than minor promise when a big-priced outsider for recent debut (7f)
R14 (14)	Always My Folks Chestnut J:TBC T:C W Chang	J: T:C W Chang	121	h	288002	44	74	-	14d	—	—	—	5	—	—
Eight-race maiden with very mixed record; went close over C&D this month, though
1 (3)	Thriving Brothers Bay J:Matthew Chadwick T:C H Yip	J:Matthew Chadwick T:C H Yip	135	t	303-06	58	77	-	38d	—	—	—	2	—	—
Ran well over 5f on recent stable debut and today's extra furlong is sure to suit
2 (5)	Super Sixty Chestnut J:Ellis Wong(7) T:C Fownes	J:Ellis Wong(7) T:C Fownes	134	he	-42141	57	66	-	28d	—	—	—	18.3	—	—
Has won two of his last three (6f/5f) and could plausibly still be on the upgrade
3 (11)	Prime Mortar Chestnut J:Angus Chung(3) T:A S Cruz	J:Angus Chung(3) T:A S Cruz	133	tv	720276	56	75	-	28d	—	—	—	5	—	—
Placed three times over C&D this season but his record is very mixed; drawn wide today
4 (2)	Candlelight Dinner Bay J:James Orman T:Y S Tsui	J:James Orman T:Y S Tsui	132	h	-40009	55	76	-	31d	—	—	—	1.3	—	—
Front-runner; yet to be placed in Hong Kong but has good draw today; not ruled out
5 (8)	Gameplayer Elite Grey J:Lyle Hewitson T:Douglas Whyte	J:Lyle Hewitson T:Douglas Whyte	132	—	-07724	55	72	-	42d	—	—	—	4.8	—	—
0-10 in Hong Kong but has made the frame over C&D on last two outings; each-way claims
6 (6)	Loving Vibes Chestnut J:Zac Purton T:K W Lui	J:Zac Purton T:K W Lui	130	—	722251	53	67	-	21d	—	—	—	15.8	—	—
Came good with C&D win three weeks ago; Zac Purton maintains the partnership
7 (1)	Nebraskan Bay J:Hugh Bowman T:J Size	J:Hugh Bowman T:J Size	130	b	-98223	53	74	-	21d	—	—	—	9.8	—	—
Placed over C&D on last three appearances and warrants serious consideration from stall 1
8 (9)	Gallant Rex b/br J:L J Ferraris T:David A Hayes	J:L J Ferraris T:David A Hayes	129	t	—	52	-	-	—	—	—	—	0.5	—	—
Recent trials have been fairly encouraging but he's best watched on this official debut
9 (12)	Glorious Ryder Bay J:Karis Teetan T:David Eustace	J:Karis Teetan T:David Eustace	129	—	—	52	-	-	—	—	—	—	0.5	—	—
Makes very limited appeal from stall 12 on this official debut
10 (10)	Legend Star Bay J:Alexis Badel T:C S Shum	J:Alexis Badel T:C S Shum	127	t	00	50	61	-	11d	—	—	—	0	—	—
A well-beaten outsider on first two starts (6f/7f); overlooked from stall 10 today
11 (4)	Draco Bay J:K C Leung T:P F Yiu	J:K C Leung T:P F Yiu	120	tp	-43357	41	75	-	28d	—	—	—	2.4	—	—
Placed twice at start of this year but form has dipped slightly in recent weeks
12 (7)	My Intelligent Bay J:M L Yeung T:W Y So	J:M L Yeung T:W Y So	117	tv	27-534	40	75	-	21d	—	—	—	0	—	—
Back from layoff with three good runs this year; ought to make his presence felt again
