Twilight racing returns to Sha Tin on Saturday afternoon, with a bumper 10-part program lined up for punters. The rail is in the C course for the meeting, and although there are some scattered showers forecast in the lead-up, it shouldn’t affect the Good 4 rating at the time of acceptances. All the action is set to get underway at 4pm local time. Check out our best bets and quaddie numbers for the Sha Tin races on July 6.
Best Bet at Sha Tin: Courier Aladdin
Courier Aladdin makes his debut on the back of some impressive barrier trials. His most recent jump-out on the Sha Tin all-weather circuit particularly caught the eye, with the son of Satono Aladdin going on to score by two lengths after baulking clear along the inside running rail. He gets the services of Hong Kong’s best Zac Purton for race-day, and with barrier four allowing Courier Aladdin to sit within striking distance turning for home, punters can expect a bold showing by the Jamie Richards-trained three-year-old.
Best Bet
Race 5 – #4 Courier Aladdin (4)
3yo Gelding | T: Jamie Richards | J: Zac Purton (58.5kg)

Next Best at Sha Tin: Robot Knight
Back-to-back minor placings should have Robot Knight ready to peak in this all-weather Class 4 contest. The Pierre Ng-trained gelding attempted to make every post a winner last start on June 15, only finding one better in the form of Aca Power storming over the top to score by 1.3 lengths. Robot Knight gets a 2kg swing in the weights this time around, and with the key booking of Zac Purton hopping aboard, this guy can turn the tables.

Best Value at Sha Tin: Chateauneuf
Chateauneuf has had eight weeks off since chasing home New Power at Happy Valley on May 8. He was forced back towards the rear of the field from barrier 11 on that occasion, chasing home gallantly in an on-speed dominated contest. Getting back to the 1400m at Sha Tin should be ideal for the son of Fastnet Rock, and with Zac Purton likely to gain the ideal from stall five, Chateauneuf should get every chance to add a second career win to the resume.
Best Value
Race 8 – #2 Chateauneuf (5)
3yo Gelding | T: David Hayes | J: Zac Purton (61kg)
