Race 1: Chevalier Insurance Handicap

#14 Compulsory is improving this season. He slots in light and is favoured here, especially with a hot tempo a big chance. He gets an opportunity with Karis Teetan up. #4 Super Contented is making steady improvement. He was interfered with last start but his previous outing caught the eye. Expecting sharp improvement here. #9 Beat Hollow is after back-to-back wins. He'll lead and take plenty of catching, especially under the 10-pound claiming apprentice. #10 Apex Top can get the right run. Don't discount.

Race 2: Chevalier Lifts & Escalators Handicap

#7 Loyal Bo Bo has trialled the house down and he looks well placed to make an impact on debut. Zac Purton takes riding duties and his trials suggest that he has above average ability. One to catch. #2 Wunderbar won well first-up and is expected to perform at that level again. He'll make his own luck close to the speed and can threaten this group. #11 Lucky Quality gets Vincent Ho up. He's not without his chance. #5 Grand Conqueror makes his debut. He can surprise first-up after trialling well.

Race 3: Chevalier Property Development Handicap

#6 Cool Blue is better than his record suggests and he can score a first win this weekend. He was caught too far back last start with far too much work to do. Expecting him to put his best foot forward here. #11 Daily Trophy is lightly raced but showing significant improvement. He's drawn sweetly and is well-weighted. #2 Multisuper can find the lead and play catch me if you can. He pairs favourably with James McDonald, who takes the ride from a positive gate. #1 Magic Supreme is in form and has claims.

Race 4: Chevalier Property Management Handicap

#7 Mark The Moment has trialled the house down ahead of his return. There looks to be a stack of pace in this contest, which should suit him. He rates strongly and just needs to overcome the awkward gate. #6 Self Improvement has his fair share class when racing on the dirt. He pairs favourably with Zac Purton. #2 Adefill can improve following his latest effort. He has a few rating points still in hand and James McDonald's booking is a plus. #4 Packing Bole can roll forward and make his own luck. Keep safe. 

Race 5: Chevalier Aluminium Engineering Handicap

#12 Super Wise Dragon has the ability and did close off nicely last start from the tail of the field. He can take another step forward again this weekend, even from the awkward draw. #5 Winning Steps is a nice horse and he can fire first-up. Zac Purton hops up and he has share of talent for leading trainer Pierre Ng. #10 Mister Dapper has only had the two starts but he's showing that he has plenty of quality. He can improve once more. #3 Master Hero is consistent and he should be rewarded again. Don't discount.

Race 6: Chevalier Building Supplies & Engineering Handicap

#9 Sunlight Power has shown significant improvement across each start this term and he is so, so close to a first win. Expecting he can get there. He can step up to another level as he continues to get more and more experience. #7 Celtic Times is another that continues to get better across each run this term. #4 Fun Together is aiming for back-to-back wins. His latest effort was solid and the form out of that race is proving very strong. #12 Maximize Heart has caught the eye in his last two outings. He'll be closing off late.

Race 7: The Chevalier Cup Handicap

#10 The Best Peach was without luck last start. He was bolting for a run in the straight, however, couldn't quite get the clear room he wanted. He's better than his current rating and the light weight affords him a super chance. #5 Super Sunny Sing has the class to overcome this group. He'll relish the trip, class of race and inside draw. #11 Happy Together is chasing a hat-trick of wins. He slots in light and continues to raise the bar each outing. #1 Red Lion is quality and is a force to be reckoned with here.

Race 8: Chevalier Car Dealership Handicap

#3 Find My Love has a stack of rating points still to find and his best is yet to be seen. He was caught too far back last start and found interference in a race that was dominated by on-pacers. #4 Alacrity roared into second place last start. Zac Purton sticks aboard and he rates strongly here for an in-form Jamie Richards yard. #9 Supreme Lucky has the talent to mix it with this group. #2 Dancing Code has raced well this season, advancing each and every start he's made. He'll give this group something to worry about. 

Race 9: Chevalier Cold Storage & Logistics Handicap

#6 Romantic Charm returns after accompanying stablemate Romantic Warrior in Australia. His latest trial was eye-catching and this race is very suitable, especially over his ideal trip after racing well over shorter last term. #7 Master Of Fortune is chasing back-to-back wins. He was super impressive last start and Zac Purton sticks aboard. #10 Chancheng Glory has won his last two starts in fine style. He's figured it out now and remains a huge threat, even up in class. #2 Beautyverse is next in line. He's in form.

Race 10: Chevalier Construction Handicap

#5 Cotton Fingers has only had two starts but is already showing considerable ability. He can continue to improve and the inside draw is hugely favourable. One to beat. #4 Global Harmony was super impressive when winning last start and he has long threatened to do that. He can improve from that but he will need to from barrier 12. #10 I Give can give this group something to reel in. He's won his last four starts and is in sublime form. #9 Lady's Choice is next in line.
