Happy Valley horse racing tips

—

Race 1. (20:40) Yue Wan Handicap (1800m)

#12 - Joyful Champion

BET NOW

Joyful Champion could take advantage of a moderate field on Wednesday, and punters could get value odds for the six-year-old.

The son of Outstrip owns only one win from 38 starts, but he ran second at Sha Tin two back, so that’s a solid form guide.

Punters should look for nice odds in the opener.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 2. (21:10) Choi Wan Handicap (1000m)

#5 - Looking Bright

BET NOW

Looking Bright didn’t show much on debut at Canterbury, but his form improved with a win at Wyong before being brought by Hong Kong interests.

The Frankie Lor-trained son of Zousain looks ready to fire, and getting Zac Purton in the saddle is likely to shorten his odds.

Barrier three is perfect, so put him on top.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 3. (21:40) Wu King Handicap (1650m)

#1 - Sunday’s Serenade

BET NOW

Gunning for three consecutive wins is Sunday’s Serenade, who scored his last two starts at Happy Valley.

The four-year-old’s form has improved significantly since switching to racing at this track, having gone winless at Sha Tin in 10 attempts.

Purton rides, so the winning run could continue.

Stake: 2.5 Units

Race 4. (22:10) Choi Hung Handicap (1650m)

#1 - Helene Feeling

BET NOW

Helene Feeling has a fair amount of class, and the five-year-old is set to get back to winning form on Wednesday.

The Danny Shum-trained gelding owns seven wins and 13 placings overall, and carrying 61kg shouldn’t worry him too much.

Look for a betting push on race night.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 5. (22:40) Tin Sau Handicap (1200m)

#3 - Fortune Whiskey

BET NOW

David Eustace lines up Fortune Whiskey, who won well at Happy Valley four back, and that’s a tidy form guide.

The four-year-old son of Embellish comes off a handy third placing, and with five wins from 21 starts overall, he’s never too far away.

It’s an even field and he’s a good chance to win.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 6. (23:10) Tin Sau Handicap (1200m)

#8 - Bienvenue

BET NOW

Bienvenue should have won a race by now, but after posting three placings from nine starts, he gets another good chance.

The three-year-old son of Star Turn has more upside than most in this field, and it’s another premium ride for Purton.

We expect him to be fighting out the finish.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 7. (23:45) Tin Sau Handicap (1200m)

#4 - Great Spirit

BET NOW

It was good to see Great Spirit score a win two back at Happy Valley, and although beaten last start, he could get back to winning form.

The four-year-old son of American Pharoah runs well at this track, and after two wins already this season, he’s good enough to add another.

Punters should get each-way odds on race night.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 8. (00:15) Nam Shan Handicap (1800m)

#3 - Excellence Value

BET NOW

Consistency is with Excellence Value, who won at Happy Valley three back before adding a third and second placing.

The four-year-old son of Fastnet Rock is bred for speed, and we expect the form out of his recent races to stack up nicely.

Barrier two is ideal, so he has every chance to win.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 9. (00:50) Hoi Lai Handicap (1200m)

#6 - Wukong Jewellery

BET NOW

The three-year-old son of Too Darn Hot won at Sale before heading to Hong Kong, and he looks to have a bright future.

He paid only $1.70 when winning with Blake Shinn riding and getting the inside draw could be enough to see him win his Hong Kong debut.

Look for an odds push on race night.

Stake: 1 Unit
