Sha Tin Race 4 - Luk Wu Hcp (C4)
PAPAYA BROSE (1) was too good on debut before getting a mile back over 1400m and hitting the line strongly before the break. Back to 1200m now off a short break and one trial at Happy Valley where he closed off nicely and Moreira sticks from that outing. Can land the knockout blow this time. NAVAS G (4) missed narrowly over this course and distance 21 days ago on debut when sticking on gamely as a $16 chance. Yuen's claim comes in handy and he should be prominent in the run yet again from a good draw. Should be better for the debut run and can get the job done this time. BETTER AND BETTER (10) won two back in narrow fashion before bumping into a good winner last time out, though he was best of the rest. May end up back in the run from the draw, but watch for him flying late in the race. LITTLE MONSTER (11) rates highly on his recent form and can make an impression coming back to this track and trip.

Resuming. Finished off last campaign third of 14 at this track March 15 over 1400m, 1.3 len behind Endeared carrying 61kg at $2.70. On debut favourite; won by 1.5 len this track February 19 over 1200m defeating Prestige Hall with 57.5kg at $21. Certain to be right in the mix.

Second-up. First-up after two months 6th of 14 at this track on April 26 over 1200m, 6 len behind Mr Incredible with 57.5kg at $20. Previously second-up 4th of 14 at this track Rating 60 on November 15 over 1400m, 2.25 len behind Bucephalas carrying 61kg at $5.60. Looks a fair way off peak form so others are preferred.
