Hong Kong Derby Form Guide & Tips

(1) Rubylot (Best Bet – $3.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

We backed Rubylot to win the Hong Kong Classic Cup when paying $14, but punters don’t get those odds this time around.

He’s the best runner in the field based on recent form, and we’re not about to drop him based on his tough win.

(2) My Wish (Best Each Way – $6.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

Second behind Rubylot in the main lead-up race and it could be the same quinella again. He’s another classy type that could easily win the race.

He doesn’t know how to run a bad race, and getting $6 for a runner like My Wish is good shopping.

(3) Johannes Brahms ($6.50)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

He ran third in the Hong Kong Classic Cup and he could fill a minor position again. We’re not surprised that the betting market has them in betting order.

His form is good enough to win and he’ll appreciate the distance most than most.

(4) Stunning Peach ($21.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

We haven’t been impressed with his form recently, hence the odds. We rated him around $34, so we’re not including him in our Hong Kong Derby picks.

(5) Bundle Award ($8.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

He doesn’t come through the main lead-up races, but Bundle Award won well at Sha Tin last time out.

It’s tough to line up that race, but based on his top-end ability, he looks good enough to include in trifecta and first four bets.

(6) Packing Angel ($6.50)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

Good enough to win three consecutive races before finishing fourth last start. Nothing wrong with that effort and he’s another top pick.

We expect him to look like a winning chance at some stage with Joao Moreira riding.

(7) Mickley ($26.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

His last two starts have been poor, and not even Ryan Moore can get the best out of him.

(8) Noisy Boy ($21.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

He looked good winning consecutive races but he was found out against stronger opposition last start.

We can’t see him turning that run around it the Hong Kong Derby.

(9) Cap Ferrat (Best Roughie – $13.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

The former Australian is worth giving another chance if he’s anywhere near his best. That wasn’t the case last start, but he’s too good to leave out.

Craig Williams rides and he’s worth one more go.

(10) Steps Ahead ($41.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

Solid enough form this season but it has come at lower level. A win would be a surprise result.

(11) Californiatotality ($26.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

He had solid betting support in the Classic Cup but he didn’t deliver. He’s good enough to turn that run around, so he could enter first four picks at nice odds.

(12) Markwin ($21.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

Second behind Bundle Award last start. It’s not the strongest form guide and we’re not interested in the current price.

(13) Lo Rider ($26.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

Never too far away but Group 1 racing is beyond him at this point.

(14) Beauty Alliance ($26.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

Looking to make it a hattrick of wins. Facing a stiff rise in class and that’s where he could struggle, so back him in something easier.

(15) Mondial ($101.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

Big odds, and after a poor fresh up effort, we’re not surprised.

(16) Sky Heart ($67.00)

Use Code: 'GOBET500'Check Offers

We liked his win two back against softer company. A win or placing would be asking too much of him.
