Looking to cap off three consecutive placings is Courier Magic, who was only a nose behind the winner at Sha Tin last start.
The six-year-old son of Savabeel owns two wins and six placings from 19 starts at Happy Valley, and he is a strong winning hope here.
Zac Purton rides, which adds to his appeal.

Stake: 1 Unit
Looking to improve on two fair starts this preparation is Smart City, who gets the services of James McDonald.
