Race 1. (19:00) Miraculous Handicap (1800m)

#4 – Golden Fortune

BET NOW

Golden Fortune has turned his form around nicely with back-to-back placings, and he deserves a winning turn.

The four-year-old son of Preferment ran at big odds in his last two starts, including a $22 chance last time out.

Having Hugh Bowman riding helps, so include him for value.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 2. (19:30) Mr Award Handicap (1400m)

#7 – Double Bingo

BET NOW

Double Bingo is another runner looking to score an overdue win after posting three consecutive placings this preparation.

The five-year-old son of Charm Spirit owns three placings from seven starts at Sha Tin, and getting Zac Purton in the saddle is ideal.

We expect money to come for him on race day, so take the opening odds.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 3. (20:00) Pingwu Spark Handicap (1400m)

#6 – Grand Patch

BET NOW

Grand Patch didn’t show much in his first two starts, but he improved nicely to finish third last time out.

The three-year-old son of Hellbent was only 1.5 lengths behind the winner at $36, but punters should expect much shorter odds here.

It’s an open field, so include him on an each-way basis.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 4. (20:30) Medic Kingdom Handicap (1400m)

#2 – Rising Phoenix

BET NOW

David Hall lines up Rising Phoenix, who showed speed when winning twice last preparation.

The four-year-old son of Darci Brahma runs his best races at Sha Tin with two wins and two placings from 13 starts.

It’s another good ride for Purton, who could have a big night.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 5. (21:00) Big Profit Handicap (1200m)

#3 – Ka Ying Resilience

BET NOW

Looking for back-to-back wins is Ka Ying Resilience, who scored by just under a length at Sha Tin last time out.

The four-year-old son of Blue Point paid $4.80 on that occasion, and punters should expect similar odds against this field.

If he gets cover from barrier seven, he should prove tough to hold out.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 6. (21:30) Victory Marvel Handicap (1200m)

#1 – Oldtown

BET NOW

Oldtown showed speed to win two starts back at Sha Tin, and he didn’t lose any admirers when finishing second last time out.

The four-year-old son of Territories will need a good ride from out wide, but Purton is the man to have in the saddle.

A betting move would be a good indication of his chances.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 7. (22:00) Solar Hei Hei Handicap (1600m)

#10 – Smart Fat Cat

BET NOW

Smart Fat Cat is better for two runs under his belt this preparation, including a second placing fresh up at Sha Tin.

The four-year-old son of Starspangledbanner gets all favours with 55kg on his back, and that should be enough to take him close.

Punters should get each-way odds on race day.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 8. (22:35) The Hong Kong Racehorse Owners Association Trophy (1600m)

#4 – Soleil Fighter

BET NOW

Nichola Yuen is riding well with the 4.5kg claim, and it could be enough to see Soleil Fighter win again.

The six-year-old son of Sea the Moon scored by a half-length last time out, and it was a long overdue victory at the track.

He is a seven-time winner overall, and he’s good enough to handle this quality field.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 9. (23:10) Joy and Fun Handicap (1200m)

#4 – Gold Patch

BET NOW

Gold Patch showed good form during his first preparation, including three wins and two placings from five starts.

The three-year-old scored by 1.2 lengths two starts back before finishing under a length from the winner last time out.

It’s good form, and Purton sticks with him like glue.

Stake: 2.5 Units

Race 10. (23:45) Sight Winner Handicap (1600m)

#3 – Sky Vino

BET NOW

A wide draw isn’t ideal for Sky Vino, but he has time to find cover over the mile, so we’re backing him to score.

The four-year-old son of Vino Rosso has yet to win from 10 attempts at Sha Tin, but he has been close with two placings.

Joao Moreira rides, and the Magic Man could get him home.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 11. (00:20) All You Wish Handicap (1400m)

#1 – Super Express

BET NOW

Super Express owns two wins and eight placings from 11 starts, so he’s a consistent type worth including in picks.

The four-year-old son of Ten Sovereigns ran just under a length from the winner last start, and he deserves a winning turn.

Bowman rides, which could be enough to see him win.

Stake: 1 Unit
