Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted October 3, 2023 Journalists Share Posted October 3, 2023 What Happy Valley Races Where Happy Valley Racecourse – Wong Nai Chung Rd, Happy Valley, Hong Kong When Wednesday, October 4, 2023 First Race 7:15pm HKT (10:15pm AEDT) Visit Dabble Hong Kong racing heads to Happy Valley on Wednesday evening for a competitive eight-race program under lights. The rail moves out to the C+3 position, meaning we’ll be favouring on-speed gallopers throughout the card. We should be racing on a genuine Good surface for the meeting, which is set to get underway at 7:15pm HKT (10:15pm AEDT) Best Bet: Sunny Baby Sunny Baby is set to line up for his second start this campaign in Class 5 company and did enough first-up to suggest he can better his runner-up effort at Sha Tin on September 17. Chiu Chow Brother made every post a winner on that occasion, leaving Sunny Baby chasing gamely from back in the field to finish less than a length away. The six-year-old is beautifully placed here by the David Hayes barn, and with Zac Purton electing to stick, a more positional steer from the Hong Kong champion jockey should have Sunny Baby finishing best. Best Bet Race 1 – #1 Sunny Baby (5) 6yo Gelding | T: David Hayes | J: Zac Purton (61kg) Bet with Bet365 Next Best: Denfield Denfield is his own worst enemy and proved it first-up when narrowly defeated on September 13 over the Happy Valley 1200m. He was beaten a length by Mega Bonus but simply should’ve won with any barrier manners. The four-year-old gelding sticks at the track and trip and gets Zac Purton for the first time, and we’re hoping the Australian hoop can get Denfield to jump better and allow him to utilise his stunning turn-of-foot to score. Next Best Race 6 – #1 Denfield (9) 4yo Gelding | T: Danny Shum | J: Zac Purton (61kg) Bet with Betfair Best Value: Red Elegance This progressive type from the Jamie Richards yard is set to resume from a 14-week spell. He’s only had four career starts, notching one victory, but doesn’t look far away from producing a new peak performance. The Toronado gelding has had two recent barrier trials at Conghua to get him up to the mark for this first-up assignment, and with the speed seemingly hot in this one, we expect Red Elegance to power over the top late. Best Value Race 5 – #8 Red Elegance (4) 4yo Gelding | T: Jamie Richards | J: Karis Teetan (55kg) Bet with Unibet Wednesday quaddie tips for Happy Valley races Happy Valley quadrella selections Wednesday, October 4, 2023 1-3-4-8 1-7 1-2-3-4-5 1-4-5-6-8-9-12 More horse racing tips View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
