Verdict

LEADING DRAGON (5) has the best winning profile with two solid runs at Happy Valley this campaign and Andrea Atzeni returning after a previous win on him. His fourth to Robot Lucky Star was strong and even his 3L defeat last start stacks up. Drawn ideally and will give them something to chase. CENTRAL BANK (3) hasn't placed in two runs back, but both efforts at this track were better than they appear, and he was respected in the market. Fitter now and can feature in the finish. FLOWING RICHES (4) showed a peak form after beating Zouper Fellow at Sha Tin and has a solid record at this distance. On the quick turnaround and sharp improvement is expected. ARMOUR WAR EAGLE (1) comes in winning after a narrow victory over Giant Leap at this track and distance, and his track record keeps him competitive despite the wider barrier and 134lbs.
