Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted December 11, 2023 Journalists Share Posted December 11, 2023 What Happy Valley Races Where Happy Valley Racecourse – Wong Nai Chung Rd, Happy Valley, Hong Kong When Wednesday, December 13, 2023 First Race 6:40pm HKT (9:40pm AEDT) Visit Dabble As the Hong Kong International Races come to a close, we look to the bright lights of Happy Valley on Wednesday evening as the city circuit plays host to a competitive nine-race program. The rail is set in the B position for the meeting, and although there is no rain forecast for Wednesday, the predicted strong winds could mean racing with cover will be a major benefit. The opening race is scheduled for 6:40pm local time. Best Bet at Happy Valley: Beato Beato is winless in 10 Hong Kong starts but appears ready for a peak performance on his first look at Happy Valley. The son of Tavistock has finished in the minor placings his last two starts over the 1400m at Sha Tin and on both occasions closed off to suggest the 1650m would be ideal. He has a soft draw in barrier one, and with James McDonald taking the reins, we would be shocked if Beato wasn’t there when the whips were cracking. Best Bet Race 7 – #2 Beato (1) 5yo Gelding | T: Tony Cruz | J: James McDonald (60.5kg) Bet with Dabble Next Best at Happy Valley: Beauty Destiny Beauty Destiny’s three race starts have left a lot to be desired. The four-year-old gelding is yet to lose a barrier trial, however, and his latest at this course was terrific when leading all the way to score by a staggering 7.3 lengths. We are holding out hope that he can replicate that effort at the races this week, and with Zac Purton on board from barrier one, Beauty Destiny gets one more chance to make amends. Next Best Race 4 – #8 Beauty Destiny (1) 4yo Gelding | T: Frankie Lor | J: Zac Purton (57.5kg) Bet with Picklebet Next Best Again at Happy Valley: Atomic Energy Atomic Energy should get every chance to turn the tables on some key rivals in this 1000m Class 3 sprint. Angus Chung’s 2.5kg claim gets the four-year-old gelding into this event at the featherlight weight of 52kg, meeting the likes of Humble Star 9kg better off. He should gain an economical run in behind the speed, and provided he gets off the rails at a crucial stage, watch for this guy to be flashing down the centre of the course. Next Best Again Race 5 – #6 Atomic Energy (1) 4yo Gelding | T: Tony Cruz | J: Angus Chung (a2.5kg) (54.5kg) Bet with Unibet Happy Valley quaddie tips – 13/12/2023 Hong Kong quadrella selections Wednesday, December 13, 2023 1-4-6-7-11 2-4-8 4-5-7-8-9 1-2-6-8-10-11 More horse racing tips View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
