Verdict

ROMANTIC WARRIOR (1) hasn't raced since the Dubai Turf where he was knocked off narrowly as the $1.28 favourite under McDonald. He was given a good break following that effort and he looks to be back on song judging by his latest trials. Class horse of the race who can return with a bang. VOYAGE BUBBLE (2) was disappointing in the Sha Tin Trophy first-up at a mile and has been back to the trials since. He moved well there under Purton who hops in the saddle for today's assignment. Maps for a lovely run and can bounce back to his best form. STRAIGHT ARRON (4) missed by 2L over the mile of the Sha Tin Trophy last time out but will appreciate getting up in distance now. Blinkers goes on first time today and a strong performance is anticipated. BEAUTY JOY (3) can improve on what he did last time out and has the quality to knock a race like this off.
