SHA Tin stages another valuable card in Hong Kong on Sunday morning.
There is plenty of prize money up for grabs so our man Jack Keene has picked out his best bets – while Templegate has a tip for every race.
The speedy GOOD VIEW CLARICO (7.00 Sha Tin) should take an awful lot of beating in the 5f dash.
The son of top Aussie sire I Am Invincible showed improved form switched to the straight track at Sha Tin last time.
He showed bundles of early zip to get across from a tough draw and put the race to bed with a killer turn of foot.
He isn’t ideally drawn again, but that early pace, and the assistance of Zac Purton in the saddle, could prove decisive. He should prove better than this grade in time.

In the finale, all eyes will be on the top-weight Beauty Legacy who bids to get his season back on track.
But at juicier odds at the foot of the handicap, BALLISTIC KING (10.45 Sha Tin) can go close under top jock Karis Teetan.
He has been knocking at the door of late over 6f, but he doesn’t quite have the raw speed needed to win a decent sprint in Hong Kong.
He takes a bit of winding up, so this step up to 7f could unlock some more improvement, while he has bagged the perfect draw in three.
