Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted February 14 Journalists Share Posted February 14 What Happy Valley Races Where Happy Valley Racecourse – Wong Nai Chung Rd, Happy Valley, Hong Kong When Thursday, February 15, 2024 First Race 6:40pm HKT (9:40pm AEDT) Visit Dabble Hong Kong racing returns to Happy Valley on Thursday evening for an ultra-competitive nine-race program. The rail moves to the C course for the meeting, and with no rain predicted in the lead-up, participants should expect a Good 4 surface for race-day. The opening race is set to get underway at 6:40pm local time. Best Bet: Righteous Arion Righteous Arion was an impressive winner three runs ago at this course and distance on November 1, and although he is yet to pick up another win since, the son of Rich Enuff is set to peak on Wednesday. The Tony Cruz-trained gelding was hammering home in his most recent start behind Tomodachi Kokoroe on January 31 and didn’t have much luck from stall 11. Angus Chung retains the ride for this Class 3 contest, and with a more economical run from gate three, Righteous Arion will be finishing off best. Best Bet Race 8 – #8 Righteous Arion (3) 4yo Gelding | T: Tony Cruz | J: Angus Chung (a2.5kg) (55.5kg) Bet with Bet365 Next Best: Cheong Fat Cheong Fat heads to Happy Valley after eight career starts without a win, but he should appreciate the rise in trip to the 1650m. The gelding by Power has raced consistently without bothering the judge over 1200m but seems to be doing his best work late, giving the impression that this may be his ideal journey moving forward. He maps to get a mid-field sit with cover from barrier six, and with Cheong Fat stripping fit third-up into the campaign, watch for this guy to be storming over the top late. Next Best Race 2 – #6 Cheong Fat (6) 5yo Gelding | T: Michael Chang | J: Lyle Hewitson (56kg) Bet with Neds Next Best Again: Flying Phantom John Size has Flying Phantom primed fourth-up into his debut campaign, and he was unfortunate not to find the line best last start at this course on January 17. The son of Dissident got a checkered passage on that occasion and was forced to overwork in the early stages, leaving his turn-of-foot lacking in the concluding stages. He gets his chance to rectify the situation for followers, and with Zac Purton hopping back aboard, he’ll be doing just that. Next Best Again Race 4 – #4 Flying Phantom (6) 3yo Gelding | T: John Size | J: Zac Purton (57kg) Bet with Unibet Hong Kong quaddie tips – Thursday, February 15 Happy Valley quadrella selections Thursday, February 15, 2024 1-2-3-7-8-9 3-5-6-7-11 2-4-8 9-10-11-12 Horse racing tips View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
