Ended last season in poor form and there has been no upturn this term; new stable

Well down the field when a 60-1 outsider for last month's Hong Kong debut (7f)

Back in prime form last month but needs to find hidden reserves to overcome this mark

Won comfortably over C&D when upped in trip in October and had excuses last time

6f winner on HK debut but not in same form since (four runs); tries a new trip today

Placed twice over C&D this season and James McDonald takes the ride today

Looked useful in Ireland but first four Hong Kong runs were underwhelming

Bang-in-form 6yo who won his last two over C&D; latest 6lb rise asks quite a lot of him
7 (10)	Flash Current Bay J:Harry Bentley T:Jimmy Ting	J:Harry Bentley T:Jimmy Ting	122	t	371900	65	91	-	24d	—	—	—	6.8	—	—

Dual C&D winner this season; respectable fifth in this higher grade since; more needed

Well beaten on first two HK starts but last month's C&D sixth was much more encouraging
12 (8)	Mighty Steed Bay J:Hollie Doyle T:K W Lui	J:Hollie Doyle T:K W Lui	118	p	022173	61	88	-	21d	0W/0P 1 run	0W/0P 1 run	—	13.3	—	—
