Happy Valley plays host to the final Hong Kong meeting of the month on Wednesday, with a strong nine-race card scheduled.
The feature race of day comes in race 5, the Class 3 Longines Cup over 1650m.
The weather in Hong Kong has been very dry lately and punters should expect the going to be Good to Firm. This racing surface typically favours front-runners from inside barriers.
The jockey ranks are strong for this meeting, with Antoine Hamelin being the only rider unavailable due to suspension.
Happy Valley Race 8 Tip #1 Tornado Twist $6.00
Tornado Twist is a Class 2 winner who returns to Class 3 level today.
He's had two starts this season, and showed a good turn of foot under apprentice jockey Alfred Chan.
Those two runs have him ready to peak today and the booking of Zac Purton against a weak field suggests the horse is ready to win.
Happy Valley Race 9 Tip #1 Columbus County $3.70
Columbus County finished an underwhelming ninth in last year’s Hong Kong Derby, however he has performed well in handicap races.
In his final race of last season, he broke his Hong Kong maiden in a Class 2 race at Sha Tin.
Prior to landing on these shores, the gelding finished third in the Group 2 Waikato Guineas in New Zealand early last year which suggests he is a class galloper.
He makes his season debut in this clash after being well prepared at Conghua over the summer and with Joao Moreira on board jumping from gate 1, I expect him to win.
