Happy Valley racing tips

Race 1. (20:35) Pedder Handicap (1800m)

#2 – Storm Runner

Storm Runner has yet to win from 11 starts, but he’s knocking on the door after posting three placings from his last four starts.

The four-year-old son of Microphone will be well-backed on race night with Zac Purton riding, but he’s worth including in picks.

He’s fit after running fourth fresh up, so put him on top.

Stake: 1.5 Units

Race 2. (21:05) Man Cheung Handicap (1650m)

#1 – Quantum Patch

Quantum Patch ran well when finishing second last time out at Happy Valley, and he’s quick enough to go one better.

The six-year-old son of Gleneagles owns two wins and seven placings from 26 starts, and getting Hugh Bowman in the saddle is a bonus.

Look for each-way odds on race night.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 3. (21:35) Li Yuen Handicap (1200m)

#2 – New Power

New Power is threatening to win another race after posting three consecutive placings following a win at Happy Valley in May.

The five-year-old son of Swiss Ace is a three-time winner at the track, and although it’s a tricky field, he should be hard to beat.

Getting the inside draw over 1200m adds to his winning hopes.

Stake: 2 Units

Race 4. (22:05) Man Cheung Handicap (1650m)

#11 – Super Sicario

It might have taken nine starts for Super Sicario to win a race, but the four-year-old looked good at Happy Valley last time out.

The son of Tivaci won by just under a length, and although he has drawn wide in barrier 12, dropping to 53kg is a bonus.

Include him in picks at each-way odds.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 5. (22:40) Man Yiu Handicap (1000m)

#2 – Lucky Twenty

Lucky Twenty showed good pace on debut when winning at $61, and he could come back from a spell with a good performance.

The four-year-old son of Sooboog will need luck from a wide draw, but if he’s anywhere near his debut run, he should go close.

Punters should get nice odds from bookmakers again.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 6. (23:15) The Hkex Cup (1650m)

#3 – Star Contact

The seven-year-old owns four wins and 11 placings at Happy Valley, and he went close fresh up behind Rocket Spade.

He hasn’t won in some time, but he is never too far away from the mark, and a consistent runner is good enough to win this midweek race.

Barrier five is ideal, so look for a betting push.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 7. (23:45) Li Yuen Handicap (1200m)

#3 – Grand Nova

The five-year-old son of Vancouver ran well for third two back at Happy Valley, and something close to that is good enough.

He also finished only a length behind the winner last time out, so although he’s not winning races, he’s not far off one.

It’s another good ride for Bowman, who could have a big night.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 8. (00:15) Harbour View Handicap (1200m)

#6 – Bundle of Charm

Bundle of Charm is a six-time winner, and although he’s yet to win at Happy Valley, he’s good enough to win at midweek level.

The seven-year-old son of All Too Hard gets every chance from barrier four, and he’s fit now after two runs this campaign.

He typically pays each-way odds, so include him in picks.

Stake: 1 Unit

Race 9. (00:50) Harbour View Handicap (1200m)

#5 – Bienvenue

Bienvenue comes off an easy 1.8-length win at Happy Valley, and he owns two wins and two placings at the track.

The four-year-old son of Star Turn paid $5.60 when winning, but we expect bookmakers to trim those odds for this run.

Purton rides with 55kg, so he should run well again.

Stake: 2 Units
