Check out our best bets and quaddie selections for Happy Valley down below. Best Bet at Happy Valley: Groovy Feeling The Jamie Richards-trained Groovy Feeling put in two strong performances to kick off his Hong Kong career and didn’t have much luck in either outing. The son of Cable Bay was forced to check off heels on multiple occasions, debuting at a massive price with horse racing bookmakers at Sha Tin on December 22 before sitting wide without cover at the same track and trip on January 1. He’s had three barrier trials to get set for this after three months off the scene, and provided the breaks fall his way from barrier five, expect Groovy Feeling to be flashing over the top at start three. Best Bet Race 4 – #6 Groovy Feeling (5) 4yo Gelding | T: Jamie Richards | J: Ben Thompson (58.5kg) Next Best at Happy Valley: Top Time Top Time was unsuited to the sit-and-sprint that unfolded at Sha Tin on February 9, holding his ground comfortably behind Gallant Epoch to finish in third, 2.2 lengths away. The second horse, Master Trillion, has already franked the form going on to score since, and with Top Time likely to relish stepping out to the 1650m in a genuinely run affair, expect this guy to be a big improver heading into start six. Next Best Race 6 – #7 Top Time (3) 3yo Gelding | T: Chris So | J: Keagan De Melo (57.5kg) Best Value at Happy Valley: Money Catcher It’s hard to believe Money Catcher hasn’t tasted success since January 2023, but he finally gets the ideal setup, stepping back into Class 3 company for the first time since his Hong Kong debut. The seven-year-old comes through a strong form race at Sha Tin on March 9, beaten less than four lengths by the likes of Bundle Award and Markwin, both of which acquitted themselves well in the final leg of the four-year-old series. Expect Declan McDonogh to slide across and take it up with relative ease from stall seven with no speed engaged, and although there are other with more upside, Money Catcher can only run well here at the each-way price with . Best Value Race 3 – #1 Money Catcher (7) 7yo Gelding | T: Frankie Lor | J: Declan McDonogh (61kg) Wednesday quaddie tips for Happy Valley Happy Valley quadrella selections April 1, 2025 2-3-6-7-12 1-4-6-7 1-4-6-8 1-2-3-7 Horse racing tips View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
