Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted May 20 Journalists Share Posted May 20 What Happy Valley Races Where Happy Valley Racecourse – Wong Nai Chung Rd, Happy Valley, Hong Kong When Wednesday, May 22, 2024 First Race 6:40pm HKT (8:40pm AEST) Visit Dabble Hong Kong racing returns to the bright lights of Happy Valley on Wednesday evening, with a competitive nine-part program kicking off at 6:40pm local time. The rail is in the C+3 position, and with rain continuing to fall in the lead-up, punters should expect a yielding track. Check out our best bets and quaddie numbers below. Best Bet: Telecom Speed Telecom Speed was nailed on the wire at this course and distance on May 8 after a torrid run in transit. The son of Street Boss travelled three deep on speed for the entire journey, unable to gain any cover before being asked for the ultimate effort. The run had plenty of merit under testing circumstances, and with Angus Chung’s 1.5kg claim giving him some relief in the weights, Telecom Speed looks set to go one better in this competitive Class 4 contest. Best Bet Race 6 – #1 Telecom Speed (2) 6yo Gelding | T: Me Tsui | J: Angus Chung (1.5kg) (61kg) Bet with Bet365 Next Best: Fighting Machine Fighting Machine was beaten by 5.3 lengths first-up at Happy Valley on May 1 and didn’t have much luck. He was forced back to last from barrier 12 before getting baulked for a run early in the straight, with the gelding by War Decree unable to go through his gears. He’s drawn awkwardly again in gate 10, but with a positive steer from the outset, watch for Fighting Machine to get across to mid-field with cover before exploding in the final furlong. Next Best Race 3 – #2 Fighting Machine (10) 4yo Gelding | T: Pierre Ng | J: Zac Purton (60kg) Bet with Bet365 Best Value: Draco Draco missed the start on debut at Sha Tin on April 20 but recovered well to finish within four lengths of Multisuper. He had to be ridden up to hold a position under Vincent Ho, with the son of Deep Field using his energy early to stay within striking distance. Now that he has some race-day experience under his belt, punters should expect dramatic improvement from Draco second-up. Best Value Race 2 – #2 Draco (8) 3yo Gelding | T: Francis Lui | J: Lyle Hewitson (58kg) Bet with Bet365 Hong Kong Wednesday quaddie tips Happy Valley quadrella selections Wednesday, May 22, 2024 1-2-8 1-3-8-11 1-2-4-6-7-11 2-4-5-7-12 Horse racing tips View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
