Caspar Fownes' rising star Fifty Fifty looks the obvious choice for banker in the opening leg of the Triple Trio at Sha Tin on Sunday following some outstanding form over the past year. The progressive galloper has never missed the frame in any of his seven career starts, including four wins.

He bounced back this season in great form when winning over 1,200 metres at Happy Valley but leaves the impression he will be suited by the move up in distance. In addition, he is competitively weighted and well drawn.

The drop in grade is a bonus for Golconda who proved disappointing on his seasonal reappearance. He is capable of better and deserves another chance.

High Intelligent has shown promise in his work and trials indicating that he can do the job on first up this term.

The debut run of Good Profit was sound and he performed well on a track were it was hard to make up ground from a rearward position. There is a fair amount of improvement to come from that outing and he merits strong consideration.

Inverness caught the eye with a decent performance over the minimum trip at Happy Valley earlier this season and will appreciate the longer journey, while Bearcat is fitter now and can improve.

Tattletale showed marked improvement when winning over the Sha Tin mile on his first outing this season and, based on that performance, he does look the one to banker in the middle-pin.
