PAK TIN HANDICAP
#11 Glorious Success has made an impressive start in Hong Kong, securing two placings over 1400m, and his most recent third-place finish to Johannes Brahms is a strong formline for a race like this. The wide draw poses a challenge, but the rise to a mile looks well-timed. #6 Packing Turbine, after a fast-finishing sixth from a wide draw over 1200m on debut, settled closer to the pace from an inside draw in his second start, finishing third to Mickley over the mile. His first local win is on the horizon. #14 Embraces has clearly thrived since the switch to Cody Mo, following an easy two-length victory over the extended mile at Happy Valley last time. While this presents a tougher task rising to Class 3, he remains untapped and could have more to offer. #4 Lo Rider passed his Hong Kong debut with a seventh-place finish, beaten less than two lengths after being held up at the top of the straight. He can take another positive step forward here.
