Verdict

AUDACIOUS PURSUIT (1) has flashed home from the back his past couple, missing by 1L when the race favourite over this course and distance last time out. The wide draw will see him back in the run again, but he'll be coming home with a wet sail. VOLCANIC SPARK (8) finished off strongly here last time out when behind a dominant winner. He's been back to the trials since where he was given an easy time of it and he rates well on his recent form. Wouldn't surprise to see him end his winning drought. SUPREME MASTERMIND (2) creates plenty of interest here as he drops back to Class 5 today with McDonald booked. Wouldn't surprise to see him turn his form right around in this easier race. AMAZING GAZE (3) is not to be discounted with Purton remaining in the saddle and a return to Sha Tin looking to suit much better.
