Midweek racing is back at Sha Tin next Wednesday with the Jockey Club holding the second mixed meeting of the season.

And punters should keep the promising Good Relation in mind if his connections decide to accept for the Class Two Kam Tin Handicap over 1,600 metres.

The well-bred four-year-old has only had the two runs in Hong Kong but really impressed last time out when ridden by Jason Weaver over 1,400 metres at Sha Tin.

He rocketed home from the rear of the field to finish a close-up fourth behind Authorised and the extra 200 metres on Wednesday night looks made to order.

His Australian form appeared mediocre with his only success coming in a lowly maiden at the provincial Hawkesbury track, but he has obviously blossomed in Hong Kong under Wiley Wong's care.

Yesterday, he was not asked to make any time over 800 metres but he looked a picture of health and ready to produce his best when next sent to the gates.
