What Happy Valley Races
Where Happy Valley Racecourse – Wong Nai Chung Rd, Happy Valley, Hong Kong
When Wednesday, September 18, 2024
First Race 7:10pm HKT (9:10pm AEST)

Visit Dabble


Hong Kong racing returns to Happy Valley on Wednesday evening, with a competitive eight-part program lined up. The rail is in the B position, and with no rain forecast, we should be racing on a Good 4 surface. The opening event is scheduled to get underway at 7:10pm HKT.

Best Bet at Happy Valley: Chateauneuf

The David Hayes-trained Chateauneuf appears ready to strike first-up in this Class 4 contest. The son of Fastnet Rock was impressive in his only start at this course and distance on May 8, making inroads from the rear of the field to get within a half-length of New Power. The blinkers go on for the first time, and with Zac Purton taking the reins from gate one, Chateauneuf should get every opportunity to claim his second career victory.

Best Bet

Race 1 – Chateauneuf Silks#2 Chateauneuf (1)

4yo Gelding | T: David Hayes | J: Zac Purton (61kg)

Bet with Neds

Next Best at Happy Valley: Me Time

Me Time is on the verge of a class drop but showed he can mix it with Class 4 company at the end of last preparation. The Douglas Whyte-trained gelding recorded his best performance to date at the end of last season, powering into a runner-up finish at this course and distance on July 4. Expect Alexis Badel to be more positive from barrier three this time around, and provided the son of Cracksman has come on this season, he will prove hard to hold out.

Next Best

Race 6 – Me Time Silks#10 Me Time (3)

5yo Gelding | T: Douglas Whyte | J: Alexis Badel (54kg)

Bet with Picklebet

Best Value at Happy Valley: Sweet Briar

Sweet Briar appears well suited dropping back into Class 4 company for the first time since producing back-to-back wins in July 2023. The six-year-old was a model of consistency last preparation but couldn’t break through, with six minor placings across his 11 starts. Lyle Hewitson gets legged aboard from barrier four, and provided he can land into the one-one from stall four, Sweet Briar should take a power of beating despite the 61kg on his back.
