'His Hong Kong record is 16 unplaced runs and one win; poor latest run needs forgiving.'

'Twice denied a clear run last time following encouraging career debut; interesting.'

'Better than his modest career form figures suggest; new track/trip; possible longshot.'

'Comfortable C&D scorer last month; strong chance of repeat off 7lb higher mark.'

'Good second on September return; had poor draw as excuse last time; up in trip.'

'No top five finishes in eight attempts thus far so will surely be one of the outsiders.'

'Has showed little or no promise in 12 Hong Kong outings; very hard to fancy.'

'A bit off colour in recent runs but well handicapped; return to turf may prompt revival.'

'Needs to step up on modest C&D debut; has subsequently won a trial; cheekpieces applied.'

'Ended Macau career on a high in March but recent comeback was nothing special.'

'Back down to an enticing mark but seems to have lost his mojo of late.'

'Needs to leave form of all seven previous local starts well behind to be a factor here.'
