#2 Pray For Mir boasts strong formlines heading into this race, including a win over Voyage Samurai four starts ago. He has since performed commendably, highlighted by a last-start second to Californiatotality after leading the field at a solid tempo. Zac Purton takes the ride, and barrier 3 ensures he maps perfectly. #4 Soleil Fighter broke through for his first Hong Kong win two starts ago and held his form well to finish third last time. From barrier 2, he should again be competitive. #8 Glorious Journey had clear excuses last start when blundering near the 1000m after striking the heels of another runner. He raced wide two runs back but showed promise three starts ago with a close second to Jumbo Legend. #12 Forever Glorious steps into uncharted territory in Class 3 but maps to get a favourable run from his low draw. Carrying a light weight under Dylan Mo, who has been making the most of his recent opportunities, he’s an interesting outsider.
