Sha Tin horse racing tips

Race 1. (15:00) Tung Chung Handicap (1650m)

#12 – Cool Blue

Cool Blue is only a one-time winner, but the seven-year-old is threatening to win another race.

That win came only three starts back before adding a placing at Happy Valley and a fourth last time out, which is solid form.

It’s not the strongest field, so he should be right in the mix.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 2. (15:30) Nam Sang Wai Handicap (1400m)

#2 – Circuit Ferry

Circuit Ferry is knocking on the door of a win after three consecutive placings, and having Zac Purton riding is a bonus.

The six-year-old son of Tavistock owns five placings throughout his career, and his maiden win shouldn’t be too far away.

He only needs a touch of luck from a wide barrier to go close.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 3. (16:00) Sai Kung Handicap (1650m)

#1 – Precision Goal

Precision Goal looked good when winning fresh up at Sha Tin, and he owns four wins and six placings at the track.

The David Hayes-trained son of Tavistock is good enough to beat this field, and it’s only the big weight that could stop him.

However, we’re happy to include him in our Hong Kong racing tips.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 4. (16:30) Pak Tam Au Handicap (1400m)

#9 – Roman Crown

Roman Crown has yet to win at Sha Tin from 12 attempts, but we’re giving him one more chance to impress.

The four-year-old son of Mehmas is a two-time winner overall, and we liked what we saw when running fourth at Sha Tin fresh up.

Punters should get each-way odds on race day.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 5. (17:00) South Bay Handicap (1200m)

#11 – California Blitz

California Blitz has turned his form around nicely this year with two placings from three starts, including a second placing fresh up at Happy Valley.

The four-year-old son of Capitalist was only 1.2 lengths behind the winner at each-way odds, and punters should get similar odds here.

1kg comes off his back, so he’s worth backing.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 6. (17:35) Pak Tam Au Handicap (1400m)

#4 – Etalon Or

Boasting eight placings from 13 starts is Etalon Or, who was only a nose behind the winner last time out.

The four-year-old son of Heroic Valour has been backed and beaten throughout his career, and it’s only a matter of time before he wins.

Getting the inside draw is ideal, and this is his best chance to win.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 7. (18:05) The Association of Hong Kong Anniversary Cup (1000m)

#4 – We are Hero

We are Hero ended last preparation with a win at Sha Tin, and he’s a five-time winner at the track, which is ideal form.

The eight-year-old son of Headwater showed toughness to win by a nose, and he’s also a two-time winner fresh up.

Getting 2.5kg off his back makes him tough to beat.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 8. (18:40) High West Handicap (1650m)

#2 – Capital Delight

Capital Delight didn’t fire at Sha Tin last time out, but he’s a much better type when running fresh up.

The six-year-old son of Capitalist owns eight wins and five placings from 29 starts, and his best form is good enough to win here.

Barrier five is ideal, so include him in horse racing picks.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 9. (19:15) Tung Lung Chau Handicap (1200m)

#3 – Bulb General

Gunning for three consecutive wins is Bulb General, who scored by 2.5 lengths fresh up before winning by 1.5 lengths last start.

The four-year-old son of Embellish paid only $1.80 last time out, and we expect money to come for him again on Sunday.

Barrier 12 isn’t easy, but having Purton riding is a bonus.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 10. (19:45) Nam Long Shan Handicap (1800m)

#3 – Joy of Spring

Boasting four wins and seven placings from 18 starts is Joy of Spring, who comes off a tidy third placing at Sha Tin.

The six-year-old son of Deep Field ended last campaign with back-to-back wins, and he’s never far away from posting another victory.

Look for each-way odds from bookmakers.

Stake: 1 Unit
