RACE DAY INTERNATIONAL - SHA TIN

Toby Darby heads to Sha Tin for two races to get stuck into this Sunday morning.

08:05 SHA TIN

Almost without fail when betting in HK the first place you should look is the mount of Zac Purton, he is a class above and often gets his pick of the bunch. He has been aboard Little Paradise the last 4 times yielding result of 2131 there was still plenty left in the tank last time, despite going up in grade he drawn well and doesn’t carry a big weight he’s hard to oppose. Public Attention is relatively new to these shores having raced in Australia prior, he was well backed last time but just came up short, a few of these were in behind that day and he could well run into the places again.

LITTLE PARADISE (WIN)

09:15 SHA TIN

You would struggle to find a horse in better form this season than Invincible Ibis, he’s gone from strength to strength as the trip has increased, winning 3 on the bounce including eased down last time over C&D. He has top weight to carry but is drawn well and the switch from Purton to Bowman is insignificant due to a prior arrangement for the champ. The Red Hare could run well at a bigger price with his first attempt at a mile after staying on well last time over 7f.

INVINCIBLE IBIS (WIN)
