Hong Kong racing returns to the bright lights of Happy Valley Racecourse on Wednesday evening, with a competitive nine-part program lined up. The rail is in the A position, and with pristine conditions forecast in the lead-up, participants should be racing on a genuine Good 4 surface. The opening event is scheduled to get underway at 6:40pm HKT.
Best Bet at Happy Valley: Storming Dragon
The Jamie Richards-trained Storming Dragon has finished in the minor money five times across his six starts. The son of Star Turn was no match for Spicy Gold at this course and distance on October 16, although he was clearly finishing off best of the rest along the inside rail. Zac Purton can sit closer from barrier two this time around, and provided he can lob into the one-one throughout, Storming Dragon should finally shirk the maiden tag.
Best Bet
Race 5 – #4 Storming Dragon (2)
4yo Gelding | T: Jamie Richards | J: Zac Purton (59kg)

Next Best at Happy Valley: Yee Cheong Spirit
Back-to-back minor placings should have Yee Cheong Spirit set to peak third-up. The lightly raced five-year-old was sensational in his most recent effort at this track and trip on October 9, powering through the line from an awful position after drawing gate 12. He should get the ideal run in transit from stall one this time, and provided Vincent Ho can get off the rail at a crucial stage, watch for Yee Cheong Spirit to explode through the gap and claim his first career victory.
Best Bet
Race 6 – #8 Yee Cheong Spirit (1)
5yo Gelding | T: Danny Shum | J: Vincent Ho (57kg)

Best Value at Happy Valley: Illuminous
The Frankie Lor-trained Illuminous should relish the step up to 1800m on his first look at Happy Valley. The son of Rock Sturdy was the flashing light behind Bravehearts at Sha Tin on October 20, making significant inroads from the rear of the field. Hugh Bowman can sit handy from gate one, and with Illuminous at peak fitness third-up, he will be hard to hold out at an nice each-way price with horse racing bookmakers.
Best Value
Race 7 – #4 Illuminous (1)
5yo Gelding | T: Frankie Lor | J: Hugh Bowman (58kg)
