Best Bet
Illuminous ( Sha Tin Race 10 No. 3 )
He has a win and a place from 3 starts at Sha Tin this preparation. Last start he was runner-up in a driving finish and steps up to 2000m for the first time. It should suit and he looks a winning chance.

Howdeepisyourlove ( Sha Tin Race 7 No. 3 )
Howdeepisyourlove chased well to be a close runner-up at this track and distance last start. He’s up in class but carries 2.5 kg less than last start and looks a good each-way bet.
