With an estimated HK$6 million on the table, players in Sunday's season-finale Triple Trio will be leaning heavily on top trainers John Size and John Moore.

Size's last-start winner Delish looks the obvious banker in the middle leg with champion jockey Douglas Whyte aboard the lightly raced three-year-old, who lines up against a field of well tried and unexceptional gallopers.

Whyte was comfortable taking Delish to the front in winning at the same course second-up, and he may find himself in the same role again with little speed engaged.

The Moore-trained Sea Prince looks a likely front-runner with the claim for Vincent Ho Chak-yiu and he looks a good second choice, but most of the runners prefer to find their feet early and will be giving away an advantage.

Players will want to include Maelstrom after an excellent run to hang on for fourth with circumstances against him last start dropping to Class Four, the consistent Super Gentleman and Sammy's Falcon. Galaxy Treasure, resuming fresh as he did when winning earlier in the season, also looks a runner of interest.

Moore will hold a strong hand in the final leg with another lightly tried three-year-old, Victory Master, also coming off a solid second-up win. An extra 200m looks right up his alley and the draw has been kind to the promising youngster.
