Kota Kinabalu: The Hong Kong twilight meeting tomorrow (Sunday) is set to light up with not one but two headline acts.
Fan favourite California Spangle takes centre stage at Race 8 with these two closest challengers Taj Dragon and Mugen plotting to derail the former’s ambition.
California Spangle in March had put up an electrifying run in winning the prestigious Al Quoz international sprint in Dubai.
Race 9 is likely a rambunctious affair with as many as five runners staking their claims.
Chief protagonist has to be the hurting Changcheng Glory who has scores to settle with Galaxy Patch.
At their last encounter on 2 June, Changcheng Glory lost achingly to Galaxy Patch by the thinnest margin or “nose”. Beauty Joy, Five G Patch and Happy Together should challenge robustly.

In Tambalang, Race 3 (1,100m) over sand track looks a gripping affair.
With no outright favourite installed, speedster Apin Apin Prince, the composed Billie Jean, Victoria Glory and Princess are set-up for a fiery competition.
Fleet-footed Dolly Dream will sit patient before launching the final assault.
The vastly-experienced Kokorriko in Race 4 (1,100m) over sand track has to be the top pick.
Lucky Lady II, Putri Seroja and Magic Oppa round up the selections.
