Hong Kong racing returns to Sha Tin Racecourse on Wednesday evening, with a competitive eight-part program set for decision on the all-weather circuit. The rail is in the true position for the meeting, and with pristine conditions forecast on Monday and Tuesday, it should be a perfect night of racing. All the action is scheduled to get underway at 7:15pm local time.

Best Bet at Sha Tin: Dragon Air Force

Dragon Air Force appears set to peak heading into start six after giving a good account of himself on the all-weather surface last time out. The son of Swiss Ace hit the line well under Zac Purton, closing to within 2.8 lengths of Offroad Master. Watch for Purton to be more positive drawn in barrier six this time around, and provided he can land in the first four turning for home, Dragon Air Force should justify the short price with Neds

Best Bet

Race 3 – Dragon Air Force Silks#7 Dragon Air Force (6)

4yo Gelding | T: Ricky Yiu | J: Zac Purton (56kg)

Bet with Neds

Next Best at Sha Tin: Mojave Desert

The Mark Newnham-trained Mojave Desert caught the eye in a recent barrier trial on the all-weather surface and finally draws a barrier (3) to sit handier. The I Am Invincible gelding has only drawn better than barrier eight once in his seven starts since arriving in Hong Kong and gets the opportunity to get on the leaders’ back throughout the journey. There should be no excuses for Mojave Desert to figure in the finish, and at the price with horse racing bookmakers, this guy warrants an each-way ticket.

Next Best

Race 4 – Mojave Desert Silks#4 Mojave Desert (3)

Best Value at Sha Tin: Tale Of Perth

Tale Of Perth appears perfectly placed to strike dropping into Class 4 company for the first time. The son of Supido was impressive over 1200m last time out, hitting the line well to suggest the step up to the 1650m should be ideal. Gate one should allow Ben Thompson to take closer order, and although he must lug 61kg to victory, Tale Of Perth should get every chance to claim his Hong Kong maiden at the fourth time of asking.
