Happy Valley racing tips

Race 1. (21:40) Mercury Handicap (1200m)

#3 – Nebraskan

The five-year-old wasn’t too far away from the prize last start despite finishing seventh, and he can improve on that.

He showed good form when placing in consecutive runs at Happy Valley, and he owns six placings at the track.

A win here shouldn’t take much longer.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 2. (22:10) Venus Handicap (1650m)

#12 – Kasa Papa

Bringing plenty of experience is Kasa Papa, who finished second at Happy Valley last time out.

The eight-year-old son of Savabeel gets in with only 53kg on his back, and Hollie Doyle has been riding well this season.

After four runs this prep, he looks ready to strike.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 3. (22:40) Venus Handicap (1650m)

#1 – Shanghai Style

There isn’t much consistency with Shanghai Style, but he went close at Sha Tin two back when finishing second.

The five-year-old son of Belardo has yet to fire in two attempts at Happy Valley, but he should find this level of racing right up his alley.

Having Hugh Bowman in the saddle adds to his appeal.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 4. (23:10) Jupiter Handicap (1200m)

#8 – Winning Money

Boasting four placings from nine starts is Winning Money, with all four placings coming from only five starts at Happy Valley.

The five-year-old son of Deep Field finished a short margin behind the winner last start, so a repeat of that effort will be good enough.

Zac Purton riding only adds to our confidence.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 5. (23:40) Jupiter Handicap (1200m)

#3 – California Blitz

Seeking consecutive wins is California Blitz, who has been in consistent form all season.

The four-year-old son of Capitalist owns a win and a placing from three starts at Happy Valley, so the form checks out.

He only needs a touch of luck from the barrier to go close.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 6. (00:10) Saturn Handicap (2200m)

#8 – Charity Gain

Charity Gain gets a good chance to score an overdue win after two pleasing efforts this prep, and the overall stats read well.

The five-year-old son of Twilight Son owns two wins and five placings from 10 starts at Happy Valley, which is an excellent record.

Punters could get each-way odds on race night.

Stake: 2 Unit

Race 7. (00:45) Jupiter Handicap (1200m)

#8 – Rewarding Buddy

Rewarding Buddy owns two placings from his last three starts, including a second placing at Happy Valley last time out.

The four-year-old son of Cosmic Force shouldn’t take much longer to win a race, and this is a winnable maiden event.

Vincent Ho rides, which is enough to take him close.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 8. (01:15) Uranus Handicap (1200m)

#2 – King Miles

Boasting two wins from his last three starts is King Miles, who dug deep to score by a nose last time out.

The five-year-old son of Exceed and Excel paid $8.80 when scoring last month and having three weeks between runs should help.

His form stacks up well, so include him in Hong Kong racing picks.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 9. (01:50) Neptune Handicap (1650m)

#7 – Regal Gem

Regal Gem has three wins from his last four starts, and the three-year-old son of Zoustar keeps rising through the grades.

He is a five-time winner already, including three at Happy Valley, and he’s becoming a runner worth following.

Carrying 54.5kg is ideal, and it’s another good ride for Purton.

Stake: 2.5 Units
