Natsu Hayate
A good second recently to runaway course specialist idealist.Idealist huge odds on likely winner but best left.
Oaken beats Techo express for the forecast

Small but significant return.
Step 6 🌎And a 16/1 winner as the jolly is overturned.

BECKENBAUER
Win
G GERMAN
Each way
Beckenbauer
Shown zero form over shorter and longer trips.
Switched yards and dropped back to 7 furlongs and chased home favourite by 2.5 lengths. One length clear of third.
Remains at trip here and could well kick on.
Previously unplaced all runs.
G.german
Has just one place but since switching yards has been run on a strict rotation the pattern has sightly changed and this is the earliest start and could place here….Backenbauer beaten a neck.

TAIL WIND
Each way
Outsider touched off last time.Japanese oaks provides the first group 1.
Tokyo 7.40 sunday
LIBERTY ISLAND
Win
Has put in some sensational performances and won the 1000 guineas from a long way back. Has a devastating final kick and has broken final sectional records for the last 600 metres. Ascot or breeders cup bound if winning today.
KONA COAST
Each way
Form: 1-222
Could be the fly in the ointment over this trip.
A proven stayer she has been overhauled by liberty Island in recent races and an even pace may see her step up from her string of seconds.
Damian Lane is the jockey.
Ozymandis.
Has had a name change since going to Hong Kong.

GOLDEN WARSTEAD
each way
Won at dundalk off a mark of 90 for Ger Lyons and Gary Carroll, after a beaten favourite ridden by Colin Keane.
Horses always improve after being ridden by the champion jockey as he is a horse whisperer and if his advice is taken they always come on for it.
Runs off 55 here and while the marks bear little relation to the UK and Ireland ratings, they are still an indicator that the horse is very well treated. A significant change of trip and jockey here. Drawn in stall 10.
*
Prominent and straight to the front and on the rail but sadly broke down in the home straight. Pulled up but crossed the line gingerly. Fingers crossed that the horse recovers. 🤞Sha tin

Fying High
Win
Pleasant endeavor
Each way
Has a decent chance to turn performances around with the runaway horse flying high.
A massive pull of over a stone for a neck defeat gives a fighting chance to this horse.
Part of that pull comes from a ten pound claimer onboard.
Despite that, it is still hard to oppose a horse on a winning run and it could be there is more improvement to come from flying high in this grade.Pleasant Endeavor close up placed but no chance with the rail winner. 🌎 Step nine
Sha Tin 9.35
Silver Sonic
Each way
Prince of PORTY
Win
Both have tricky draws to overcome here with silver sonic enjoying the better draw…Silver Sonic step 10 fourth @ a decent price.
🌎
As the each ways finally begin to kick in.
To be fair they have been 99 % each ways and they have simply won or lost. Liberty Island breaking the ground in Japan.Sha Tin 1145
Hameron
Each way
Staying on one pace behind a runaway winner and a highly progressive one at that.
Form not franked by the running on third horse who has been unplaced since. But for the winner Hameron would have won last time against the rail and wasn’t knocked about behind the clear winner.Another step on the way as Hameron stays on modestly for fifth place.
Step 11 🌎
A very interesting winner in find my love @ 66/1. Turns out to have been John Gosden’s find second to noble truth in the jersey at Ascot last year.Final international selection.
Kochi 1145
Japan
No form to go on here other than every single runner in this contest has either won last time out or the race before.
LELYSTAD
Each way
GALAXY SEVEN
Win
Have form with each other.Lelystad comfortably beat galaxy seven two runs back, with galaxy coming back out to win next time.
Lelystad a modest placed latest and drawn highest in this ten runner race.
Like I said, this race by it’s nature of everything in the field being a recent winner very difficult to call with any confidence.
