Verdict

PACKING KING (13) won well fresh before repeating the dose in a better performance as favourite over this track and trip 28 days ago. He looks a nice gelding on the rise and drops a stack of weight for the rise in grade. Gone to another level since coming to this track and trip and can extend his winning run. CROSSBORDERPEGASUS (1) missed as favourite last start when flying from the back of the pack. He's been a touch unlucky at the start that has made things difficult, but with a better jump this time around he can sit handier. Not to be discounted. JIN SHENG (8) makes his HK debut today after winning his maiden at Doomben before being sold. He's trialled well coming into this and and with his upside, he makes plenty of appeal. CHICKEN DINNER (7) gave some cheek last start at big odds and now Purton gets on board. Nice trial between runs can see him running well again.
