Hong Kong racing returns to Sha Tin Racecourse on Sunday afternoon, where an ultra-competitive 10-race program is set for decision. The rail moves out to the A+3 position for the meeting, and with the radar suggesting some scattered showers may hit the course proper, punters should anticipate the surface to be rated somewhere in the Soft range. All the action is scheduled to get underway at 12:45pm local time.
Best Bet at Sha Tin: Mugen
Mugen continues to impress heading into his sixth start of the campaign and is yet to miss the minor money. The son of Deep Field has been beautifully placed by the Pierre Ng stable, producing three victories to go along with two placings, with his most recent effort resulting in a narrow defeat at the hands of Red Lion in the Class 1 Chinese New Year Cup (1400m) on February 12. The 1600m journey appears ideal for the five-year-old gelding, and with Hugh Bowman in the saddle from a soft draw, Mugen must be considered the one to beat.

#4 Mugen (5)

Next Best at Sha Tin: Gorgeous Win
Gorgeous Win is seeking a hat-trick of wins in the Sha Tin finale, and despite being forced to carry top-weight, it shouldn’t hinder his chances. The Danny Shum-trained gelding has been impressive in his two most recent successes at this course and distance, and although the margins haven’t been significant, the three-year-old has been rather arrogant in putting his rivals to the sword. He should find a mid-field sit with cover under Zac Purton, and when asked for the ultimate effort, Gorgeous Win can put them away again.

Best Value at Sha Tin: Viva Graciousness
Viva Graciousness is yet to bother the judge in his four Hong Kong starts to date, however, the Tony Cruz-trained gelding appears to be building to something heading into Sunday. He was strong through the wire in his last start at Happy Valley on March 13, finding the 1200m too sharp when the sprint went on. The son of Deep Field looks ready to tackle the Sha Tin 1400m, and with Brenton Avdulla likely to find the one-one throughout from stall three, Viva Graciousness represents terrific each-way value with horse racing bookmakers.
