Peter Ng Bik-kuen has found the right race for Happy Valley specialist Super Plus to continue his tilt at the 1010 Million Challenge and can act as a banker in the final leg of a tough Triple Trio tomorrow night.

Super Plus is in third place, eight points behind leader Mr Bond, who runs in the last race on the card, in the rich series decided on results at Happy Valley from September until the end of February.

Ng's honest campaigner has a record of two wins and two seconds from six starts this season and, even though his last run was his worst, a change of jockey and a weaker field should see him bounce back.

Brett Prebble takes the reins in a Class Three over 1,200m after Ben So Tik-hung was criticised for his effort on the seven-year-old last time out.

Whether it was bad judgment from So or just bad luck, Super Plus never saw daylight until very late. He should get a better run in transit this time out, even from a tricky gate of eight.

Sorting out who else to include from an even bunch is the tough part. Richard Gibson's Friends Of Yan Oi (Olivier Doleuze) drops back to what looks like his best trip at this stage and has drawn gate two.
