'Encouraging start to career over C&D; much more in the locker and can play a leading role'

'Hinting at a breakthrough earlier this year but has completely gone off the boil'

'5f winner; acclimatising to this mark and can't be discounted from the plum inside draw'

'7f win at Sha Tin In January; now only 1lb higher but needs to take another step forward'

'Hit the bar over C&D latest and with more to offer should be winning before too long'

'Proved age is no barrier when making all over C&D to gain his fifth career win last month'

'Rarely runs a bad race but outside draw makes things difficult today'

'Suggesting another win is imminent; probably won't be far away'

'Close third over C&D three weeks ago; can be expected to go well again from his good draw'

'2-3 in Australia but poor to date in Hong Kong; dip in grade should aid his cause'

'Bids for a C&D hat-trick and still well treated on old form; a must for the shortlist'

'Australian winner but nothing has gone right in Hong Kong'
