Visit Dabble |
Hong Kong racing returns to the bright lights of Happy Valley on Wednesday evening as the city circuit gets set to host a bumper nine-race program. The rail is in the B position for the meeting, and with some chance of showers hitting the course proper, punters should be wary of a possible downgrade into the Soft range. The action is scheduled to get underway at 6:40pm HKT (9:40pm AEDT).
Best Bet at Happy Valley: Kyrus Unicorn
Kyrus Unicorn won five starts ago in Class 5 company and has only managed one minor placing since, coming in his most recent start at this course and distance on February 21. It was a slowly run 1800m affair which didn’t allow the son of Havana Gold to utilise his scintillating turn-of-foot, while the eventual winner, Serangoon, got every favour along the inside rail. Kyrus Unicorn gets a swing in the weights against some key opposition, and if the speed is on, watch for this guy to be storming down the centre of the track.

Next Best at Happy Valley: Quantum Patch
Quantum Patch was hopelessly held at Sha Tin on February 12 and never got clear running in the home straight, yet he only went down by 2.3 lengths. His five starts on this course prior to that effort read exceptionally well, including a runner-up effort behind an airborne M Unicorn on his last visit. He might need favours at some stage with a small field of nine engaged, but leave it to Hong Kong champion jockey Zac Purton to navigate a passage to victory.

Best Value at Happy Valley: Solar Partner
Solar Partner returns to Class 4 company for the first time since June 2023, when he was last victorious for the Ricky Yiu camp. He has been racing consistently since heading into Class 3, including a 5.8-length defeat to Ka Ying Rising on February 12. There should be speed to burn in this 1200m contest, which should suit Solar Partner’s get-back style of racing, and we are getting a nice each-way price with the top HK racing bookmakers.
