Best Bet at Happy Valley: King Of Fighters
King Of Fighters appeared to be on the brink of securing a maiden victory in his latest outing at this course and distance on April 2 but was forced to do too much work early before fading out of the contest. He warrants forgiving despite going under as the short-priced favourite with horse racing bookmakers and gets every chance to repay the faith from barrier three. Zac Purton gets legged aboard and should amble into the one-one throughout, and provided King Of Fighters can replicate his peak from two starts back, this guy will prove hard to hold out.
Best Bet
Race 7 – #5 King Of Fighters (3)

The son of Frosted was climbing all over the back of them as Ben Thompson went searching for a run, however, the breaks never fell his way and would settle for a mid-field finish. Gate three should allow Thompson to take closer order, and provided he can unleash with a strong turn-of-speed, All’s Well should end well for those taking the good price with .

Best Value at Happy Valley: Draco
The Ricky Yiu-trained Draco hasn’t been beaten far across his four starts this season and appears to be building to a win as he returns to his favoured Happy Valley circuit. He was far from disgraced chasing home South Star in his most recent outing at Sha Tin March 30; however, seemed to hit a flat spot at the end of 1400m. Back in trip should be ideal in this Class 4 contest, and with a genuine tempo allowing him to smoke the pipe in behind, watch for Draco to be steaming over the top at a good each-way price with .
