Sha Tin Race 8 - The Queen Mother Memorial Cup (G3)

BUNDLE AWARD (4) finished midfield in the Derby 2 starts back, and then a slow start cost him a closer finish than fourth as favourite here last time out over 1800m. He is classy at best, and though the step up to 2400m is an obvious query, if he gets it, he will be hard to hold out. Follow your money. FIVE G PATCH (1) has been battling to find his best this season, but he has been racing mostly in superior fields than this. The key here is the step up to 2400m, and in a small field, a form reversal is expected. BRAVEHEARTS (6) battled away fairly well to finish sixth fresh up over 1800 here a fortnight ago. He has won twice second up in the past and did win his only start over this trip. He has each-way claims this time. NOISY BOY (5) has failed to flatter in his last couple of starts in stronger fields than this. He looked a lot better when winning a recent trial, and he can turn his form around in this. WINNING DRAGON (3) has to be respected on his best form. Include in all bets.

Last start 7th of 11 at this track on April 20 over 1800m, 3 len behind Californiatotality carrying 56.5kg at $10. The start before that came home strongly from last on the turn; 3rd of 7 at this track on April 6 over 1600m, 1.5 len behind Voyage Samurai with 56.5kg at $8.90. Hard to have in this tough line-up.

Useful type. Comes here off a 42-day let-up. Most recently ran last of 14 at this track Hong Kong Derby on March 23 over 2000m, 7 len behind Cap Ferrat carrying 57kg at $12. Before that raced on the pace before fading second last of 14 at this track Hong Kong Classic Cup on March 2 over 1800m, 7 len behind Rubylot carrying 57kg at $13. Sure to be thereabouts.
