DARYL FLASH (12) looks ready to make his presence felt after being hampered by wide gates throughout his last campaign. He has trialled up very well in the lead up to his return, and a light weight is also a big plus. A handy gate makes him the one to beat. AKASHVANI (3) caught the eye first-up at Sha Tin and should improve sharply with that run under his belt. Zac Purton reunites second-up after teaming with him to win at this track and trip last season, and despite the tricky gate, he can take this out. PRESTIGE ALWAYS (11) gets in very nicely at the weights with Nichola Yuen's claim and resumes at an easier level than he is used to. Follow any market confidence. KING MILES (9) is an interesting runner with the aid of the pole position, and the quick backup should not be an issue after he was held up and eased down late last time out. Stick with him on an each-way basis.
