Without A Fight is favourite with Ladbrokes.com.au for the Hong Kong Vase (2400m) this afternoon at Sha Tin.

The Team Freedman trained 2023 Melbourne Cup winner was very good in defeat in the Champions Stakes and fitter, up to 2400m, he looks hard to beat and the market agrees, sitting at $4.40 with betting sites in Australia.

Japanese filly Stellenbosch sits on the second line of betting at $5. Giavoletto and Dubai Honour are at $7.50.
