Danzighill could add value to tomorrow's Sha Tin Triple Trio for which there is a $14.4 million jackpot.

The talented galloper has improved significantly since moving to racing legend Tony Cruz's yard and should be ideally suited by tomorrow's 1,400-metre trip on the C Course.

Usually the C Course, especially in the first half of the programme, makes it hard for those to come from off the speed.

Danzighill should be right there on the pace under his apprentice jockey. Indeed, he could get a nice run on the speed as there doesn't look too much pace in this race.

Alf is a possible leader but probably not at the 1,400-metre trip and leading isn't necessarily brilliant British champion jockey Kieren Fallon's preferred option. He will probably look to something like Danzighill giving him a lead, as may Douglas Whyte on the progressive Made To Figure.

Last time, Danzighill had a torrid run on the speed and probably didn't see out the mile trip anyway. Tomorrow he should get the run of the race on the speed on a track which suits his front-running style and, with the kid up, he could be a spot of value to boot.
