Happy Valley horse racing tips

—

Race 1. (20:40) Dordogne Handicap (1200m)

BET NOW

Winning Heart was too good for them at Happy Valley last start when turning his form around in a big way.

The six-year-old son of Starspangledbanner won by a half-length as an $11 chance, and punters are likely to get shorter odds this time around.

He only needs luck from barrier 12 make an impact.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 2. (21:10) Dordogne Handicap (1200m)

#7 – Hoss

BET NOW

Hoss has been threatening to win a race this preparation, including running second at Happy Valley three starts back.

The six-year-old son of Fiorente is a three-time winner, so he has ability, and there isn’t much to beat in this field.

Having Karis Teetan in the saddle boosts his chances of winning.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 3. (21:40) Loire Handicap (2200m)

BET NOW

Management Folks won well two back at Happy Valley before placing, and he’s good enough to get back to winning form.

He is a three-time winner at the track, and with Karis Teetan riding from barrier two, he should be a dream run throughout.

We’re happy to include him in our Hong Kong racing picks.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 4. (22:10) Ciron Handicap (1200m)

BET NOW

There isn’t much recent form to speak of in this race, so Country Dancer goes on top based on his prior form.

He won in January before adding three placings, so he’s running well enough, and getting in with 55.5kg is a steal against this field.

Look for a betting push on race night.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 5. (22:40) The Sauterness’s Cup (1650m)

#5 – Sight Supreme

BET NOW

Sight Supreme won fresh up last preparation at Sha Tin and he could repeat that effort on Wednesday night.

The four-year-old son of More than Ready has yet to fire at Happy Valley from three attempts, but he’s a stronger type now.

Getting the inside draw is another bonus.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 6. (23:10) Ciron Handicap (1200m)

BET NOW

Young Arrow is better than his form suggests, so we happy to give him another chance at the price.

The four-year-old son of Showtime owns four placings at Happy Valley, and it’s about time he got back to winning form.

Hugh Bowman rides, and he should give him every chance to win.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 7. (23:45) Rhine Handicap (1650m)

#6 – Lucky Touch

BET NOW

Lucky Touch is threatening to win a race after posting four placings from his last five starts, so we’re happy to stick with him.

The four-year-old son of Sweynesse ran a half-length behind Keefy last time out, which is a good form guide for this level of racing.

Getting in with 54.5kg makes him tough to hold out.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 8. (00:15) Garonne Handicap (1650m)

#1 – The Azure

BET NOW

Gunning for consecutive wins is The Azure, who scored by a nose at Happy Valley last month.

The four-year-old rarely runs a bad race, especially at Happy Valley, and he’s good enough to handle this field with the big weight.

Class should take him a long way to winning again.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 9. (00:50) Seine Handicap (1200m)

#7 – Very Grateful

BET NOW

Very Grateful won on debut at Pukekohe in New Zealand, and although this isn’t an easy race, he looks to have upside.

The three-year-old son of Ace High drops in distance to 1200m, which is an interesting decision, but he should give punters a good sight.

A betting move would be telling.

Stake: 1 Unit
