6/4/23 Horse Racing Tips and Best Bets for Happy Valley
Special Thursday back at The Valley
GettyTagged: Horse Racing Tips
Hong Kong racing returns to Happy Valley with a 9-racecard on the “A” course.
The surface might be slightly slower than usual because of the recent foggy and wet weather in Hong Kong.
Silvestre de Sousa and Vincent Ho are the only 2 fully-booked jockeys today, while Zac Purton only has 6 rides.
Happy Valley Race 8 #10 All Is Good $5.00
Although All Is Good is still a maiden after 13 starts, his performances over the 1200m at Happy Valley have been great.
This 4YO is now racing at the rating of 46 and he should be benefiting from the 122 pounds under Vincent Ho.
The main threats in the field like the in-form E Brother and Son Pak Fu who will be carrying the top weight 135 and 132.
All Is Good can land with cover from gate 4 and the moderate pace will allow him to gradually work into the event.
He doesn't have the sharpest turn of foot, but with a weight swing and his positive racing pattern, he will be hard to run past.
Happy Valley Race 9 #1 Beauty Tycoon $5.50
Beauty Tycoon is a Happy Valley specialist with 2 wins over this course and distance.
After having a back-to-back win in November and December, John Size sent him to Sha Tin but the horse didn't run well.
When he was back to the city circuit in February, he ran a solid 3rd behind Speedy Mouse and Xponential.
This time the draw is ideal and the booking of Silvestre de Sousa adds confidence.
Happy Valley Race 4 #8 One Heart One $4.30
The pick here is One Heart One to shed the maiden tag on his seventh start.
Don't talk to connections about barriers! Five of his six runs have started from gate 10 or higher and he probably ran a career-best last time despite drawing 12 of 12.
That represented a first visit to the City Circuit so it's encouraging that he made the frame for the very first time.
Generously dropped 1Ib the David Hayes 4YO can take full advantage of a relatively kind draw in 7 and score under the excellent Vincent Ho.
It's fair to say he has yet to run badly and yet he is down to a mark of 44 from an initial 52.
In an interesting race, the likes of Young Victory and Big Two look to be his main dangers.
Happy Valley Race 6 #6 Flaming Passion $13.00
Let's take a $13 chance with Flaming Passion.
The Headwater gelding won back-to-back over track and trip in 2021 but its been 16 races without a win since.
As a consequence, the Frankie Lor 5YO runs off an attractive mark and connections fit headgear in addition to the usual tongue tie.
Matthew Chadwick, onboard for both his victories, keeps the faith from the 7 gate and we should get a good tempo thanks to the speedy Super Axiom drawn next door.
