The penetrometer reading is 2.73 which translates as Good to Yielding.  Sha Tin has received 255.2 mms of rain over the last seven days which is quite a lot and this has saturated the surrounding ground so the excellent track drainage may take a while to kick in.  They also plan to roll the track after race 6 (the race before the Mile) weather permitting.

No real dramatic changes in the betting – the locals have firmed and in the Cup Romantic Warrior is now the favouite on 2/1 with Massive Sovereign easing to 3.0.
