We’ve got Friday night underlight sad Happy Valley with an eight race program on the C+ three course Paul Ali is here to provide selections for the meeting and the first is a class five over the 2200 m in A1 is on the class droy race as well this grade nice birdies a last
Start winner carries an extra6 pound boom Alliance on a six day backup L ambition does race well course and distance Mighty star has a new home he’s now with Michael who’s taken the hood and the tongue tie off and down the bottom golden fairy and green laser L
Ambition likes to lead certainly around the valley Poland from Barry number five Keegan Dello will press on and find the top I think he will um look he leads sometimes and other times he doesn’t but in the smallest field I think he will golden fery he steps up and trip he he
Was uh trailing at his last start Mighty star he’s got a good draw happy hero Boomer Lance A1 Diamond winner back nice bir I think will’ll go back from a wide draw and green laser he’s gone forward in the past but the first pin comes up pretty quick and he’s drawn wide and
He’s also bit on on the all weather at this stage is green laser our first replay is winning form and winning form last time at Happy Valley over the 1650 Polly got a cracker this night with nice birdie finally scoring Paul what about the chances of going back to back yeah
That’s that’s the question um it took him a while to win this race this was a 17th start that he won it got the perfect trip and one nice he he’s w up and trip now up to the 2200 M so that’s a little bit of a question mark can he
Put two together I’m not so sure barrier rage is’s going to have to go back he might run on for a minor placing but look I didn’t include him in then that’s L ambition running about seventh in that race no medic elites on Friday not either at Happy Valley won’t be seeing
Him this week but we will be seeing the following horse run which is A1 who ran fourth last time this was up in class 4 he has placed course and distance just just the three starts in class last five for a win and a second he looks a star
Doesn’t he this is over the 2200 M his win was off 39 and he is in this rating of 40 now so he’s at at a stage where he’s not far away from a winning rating the 2200 met looks good for him this race will be a lot easier than he’s in
This one with Wonder Years coming down the outside uh look he faded a little bit late but um with the easier race I’ve included on on minor line that was a one plenty to look at in the final replay with a total of five horses coming out of this race including
Diamond winner who ends up running third golden fery up outside the speed stays on for fourth Diamond Winner’s last two runs Paul have been his best though they definitely have haven’t they and um look he’s he’s a real star as well this is the 1800 M the on the back of this run
2200 M looks absolutely ideal for him he got through the Gap and he and he finished off really strongly heavy Heroes won two races and uh one of them being here at hey Valley as well so he’s there in three he was just sort of plotting away but he looks like the
Triple suit him as well uh so I’m going to include him but a good run there for from Diamond winner he looks a St doesn’t he he does indeed so he’s good enough to win the first yeah I think he is he’s going to go on top for me
Diamond winner John size doesn’t have many horses in this grade boom all Alliance now he’s in there for second the distance should suit him he’s got Zack Pon aboard and then Happy hero and A1 53 41 and that is the preview for race number one is 7 10 post time for the
First of eights from the Valley second of the class fives is over the 1200 M and it is race number two Hercules at the top is A3 time course and distance winner wind speeder has his second look in this grade August Moon pacifies with cows off blinkers go back on as they do get the monies five has
Blinkers re added Craigs Master visor off no blinkers off visor and the hood go back on so no visor but hood and blink is on Craigs Master vaa Allah has the paf fires off and the blink is going on the speed here Paul Viva Al he’s back
To 12200 this week but it’s the same rinse and repeat go to the front I think it is look he he can lead over the 1200 he might have to work a bit to get there but he’s got blinkers on so I think that’s that that’s an intent in itself
With those blinkers on get the monies is drawn nicely but he’s he’s back in trip as well he of friends goes forward most of his starts Hercules was a lot closer last time and ran well Val never too far away wind speeder back to easy two and Millennium Falcon normally goes back
When he’s drawn wide winning form double show Victorious last time and here is a replay of that when he’s buried down on the inside draws 10 James McDonald rides him for Douglas white and steps up to the 12200 met yeah like this was 1,000 M as you
Said over the um 1200 M he’s only had a couple of thirds and a couple of for from his 1 starts look he’s in a bit of form now obviously because it took him 20 odd runs to to win this race did manag to ring run down happy horse here
And get up so look I’m going to include him but just on a minor line I just wonder about the 12200 for me that is a double show the first replay second one features Hercules who’s a normally Wednesday night regular he’s going to have to line up on a Friday night this
Week but he’s off a rating of 40 having his third start in class five good draw Alexi Bell for dinnner ship yeah I quite like him and then he’s W off a rating of 47 he’s put a little bit of weight on so he’s obviously doing really well this
Horse this was a nice second he he was trying to catch the tear away leader and couldn’t get there so um look I thought it was a good run valella he just sort of ploted on there he’s going to go in as well but I thought it was a good run
There from Hercules big tick for Hercules and last up is happily friend who’s racing well this season hasn’t won yet but he’s been very consistent win speeder disappointing but does have a win CA some distance in a higher grade to his credit yeah look I’m going to put
Heily friends in once again again not on top um but he’s been so consistent as you say running racing well Zack Pan’s going to stick with him and it was another good run from him here once again so a wi doesn’t look too far away
He’s got a nice racing weight of 121 and he’s down on this rating now which is quite low of 29 and then the replays for race number two but it’s Hercules yeah Hercules I think can win here in this grade this is the right grade now for
Him to beat he friends valh and double show 111 2 and8 as easy as race two number one Hercules for Paul in the second at the Valley spinning up race number three now we go up in grade for the first time in this one it is a class four over the 1650 in young Victory he’s first up for the season he’s had four trials Merchant Prince blinkers off the visor goes on Chim Warriors placed last three course
In distance Mr Aladin has his second look at the valley both ohos has had three trials since being scratched late September for a lame right hind reliable profit was scratched on the 5th of November with a swollen Right airm comes back in trip and diamond diamond he goes
The other way from the 1200 up to the 1650 super baby Mr Aladdin and airm the on Pace Runners here Paul yeah look here super baby LED last out airm likes to be on the pace and Mr Aladdin set in the trail last time from a really good draw
Of barrier one he’s drawn 10 here but I think he can H get across and um get outside the leader snow light it’s normally not never far away CH War get his opportunity once again I think Beauty Mission will sit a lot closer than he did last time funny should say
Cham Wario getting his opportunity here he is he’s drawn barrier one at C+ three the barrier has such a great record on this course sack Pon rides it knows it better than just about anybody yet he’s still a maiden 24 starts for six seconds tells the story doesn’t he just doesn’t
He’s had so many opportunities this horse to win he hasn’t he’s going to get another opportunity as you say from an inside draw I expect he’ll come up a little bit shorter in the market with Zack sticking with him I’m going to put him in for second I’ve got one to beat
Him but um simply Maverick that won this race came out and ran with excuses at his next that he wasn’t beaten too far simply Maverick at the last Happy Valley meeting Beauty Mission and snow a lot the next two snow Lots carrying the top weight of one 35 draws baring number two
And Beauty Mission runs fifth here he was a winner three starts ago beaten two and a half lengths behind the inform IM unicorn in this now Beauty Mission had to go all the way to the back because he drew wide in this race he drew Barry
Number 12 and um with Boran aboard and he finished off really strongly here in this race and you can see just missed out on Fourth placing well superb move there so look I think he can go one better and next Replay features Mr Aladdin who runs fourth here he’s only
Lightly raced this is going to be his fifth race start he was beaten just three qus of a length so this is best best performance so far in Hong Kong can he back it up I’m going to put him in again on a minor line Mr Aladdin just
Because of the draw he’s drawing Bar number 10 but he looks like he enjoys Happy Valley uh this was his first start as you said in to Infinity that’s red hair King on his inside and that’s simply Maverick so it’s quite a strong form race that he’s coming out of that
Was Mr Aladdin our final replay features Palace pal speaking of bad draws he draws out in 12 he runs fifth here has placed three from Seven Corson distance and Carries 120 lb back from the 18800 m in this race uh look he gets back anyone anyway son of Mongolian KH he drew five
Here and he got back he’s drawn 12 he’s going to get back once again over a shorter distance I think he’ll be running on again but look he’s just can’t get his nose in front of this stage he can’t running on maybe not quite enough to make it to the top four
Yeah it just missed out for me um Palace pal so he doesn’t go in but we’re going to go with beauty Mission here he’ll s a lot closer in the r run from barrier number five tan Warrior you can’t leave him out because he’s so consistent with
Those six seconds Mr Aladdin and snow a lot 74 5 and one and if you’re a sixup punter race number three is the opening League that’s race number four and this is race number four it’s a class four and it’s over 1650 M golden link is the
One he’s at 6 weeks between races satirical Glory went forward last time Aram Mass has his second start over the 1650 forever glorious extra5 for his last start third happy angel beat him home he carries an extra six podiums now with Michael Chang blinkers and crossover nose band off tongue tie goes
On y Chong war is a three-time course and distance winner and R honorable is a six-time course and distance winner satirical Glory from Barry number 11 has forever glorious drawn seven on his inside pole so he might be able to get through and hold out satirical Glory he
Could I think for for the early stages um I think satirical Glory might try and kick on hoost Star he likes to go forward he’ll need a bit of Lu kiro’s LED in the P past but his best runs have been when he’s slightly held up hey Angel’s another leader so there should
Be some good Pace in this race back to Podium and then daily Trophy and R honorable they’re the two that get back Keegan Dello is where we start next spoke to Keegan re happy angel Keegan Dello happy angel one of your rides on Friday night coming up at
Happy Valley you’re getting closer a third a second surely it’s this time around I really hope so he’s off that um really deserves a win uh again and look last time I might have left it a little bit too late and uh the the other hor
Just got a little bit of a a run on me but uh finding his form very nicely and uh I seem to know him a little bit better each time I R him so just hopefully it’s e day you mentioned about leaving it a bit late but I mean the way
He battled back you as a rider must have been impressed with that yeah look uh I don’t know whether it was him fighting on or the other was stopping quite a little bit but uh yeah uh I thought it was a courageous running defeat and uh
If he performs like that again uh you’ll see see the best of him in the end game he’s drawn a good gate Ki and he’s a sort of jump and sit on the pace type of horse I guess it’s a good place to be on the C+ three yeah look he was very
Confusing the the time before he he didn’t break awfully well and I had to get after him a little bit earlier but uh last time he p the gates quite nicely and and was there for nothing and I just really hope that the pace will suit him but if not I’m looking to
Lead myself and uh I think that’ll probably be the right thing to do he ran over 18 last time you’ve also ridden him over 1650 do both of those trips sort of come like for like with him what’s your take on him coming back in distance look I
Don’t think it’s it’s a problem at all I think he he he performs um equally well it’s just a matter of things going his way and uh he seems to enjoy the valley as well his only win was on the SE course obviously we know how sort of you
Know sort of tricky this course can be C plus3 more still so I guess that the rail is out that bit and it does suit him that’s also positive yeah very positive and uh look like I said if he gets the the run of the race you’ll see
The best version of him and uh just looking forward to riding him again there’s Keegan he is daily trophy now he’s been racing recently Paul on the your weather just made a real mess of the start when we last saw him but he certainly improved when it’s come to all
Weather racing daily Beauty used to race well Happy Valley on a Wednesday night his daily trophy running second so this is two starts to go of course with an excuse for him last time yeah exactly he didn’t go too well he’s had three runs here on the ather the thing that worries
Me a bit about him is three zip here at um hey Valley now in the negative um I mean in the positive I should say All Those runs have been over slightly shorter distances so stepping up to 1650 is a positive uh for him his runs have
Been good on the old weather I just wonder how he’s going to go at hey Valley I’m wasn’t too sure so I left him out I wait and see re Del trophy coming back to the turf that’s a of power lean Master getting back to third cor blue
And toeu has a recent win rounding out the top five y Chong wari knows his way around Happy Valley he ran fourth here on the 15th of November he’s down on the rail Matthew pun rides him again this week knows the horse well and draws barrier one yeah last start he ran on
The all weather and he didn’t really cop it at all uh he’s going really well here at Happy Valley he’s drawn ideally in barrier number one look I quite like him I think this is a reasonably strong form race that he’s come out of as well and
Uh he looked halfway like he was going to win again these horses were coming down the outside so the row wasn’t the best place to be for him either that’s a breakdown of a few horses in race number four who’s the winner going to go with him actually y Chong Warrior I’ll put
Him on on top the nine forever glorious he’ll be right in the right place he’s W up a 43 rating he’s slightly higher at 49 uh but I think he’ll get he’ll get a nice run on the pace along with hey Angel that can sit in back behind him
And satal glor I think can get across as well so Pace orientated I’m going with I think the four horses that will be right on the pace in this race 95 6 and three and if you’re a triple tro punter race number four is your first Leag on to race number five now and it is a class 4 over the 1200 M Wood on fire has been back to the trial since an unacceptable performance last time nothing in the report Caris was concerned about his action in The Run happy tro winner two starts too highrise
Soldier wide a draw gorgeous Vitality goes up in trip Fury and gold on Debo has had the two trials tattenham better draw when he’s last had better draws he raced okay with the win and a third from them speed here from hero star and konel more than likely and that’s going to
Give lyrical motion his chance from barrier number one who gets to the lead Paul Colonel to too fast for hero star you think just the way the draws are Colonel’s drawing six and hero star has drawn the outside so I think he can get there um before him K de is the other
One that likes to go forward as well and Kell de’s drawn eight so I think he’ll come across but Colonel has got the early speed so I think he’ll try and just slot him behind him if he does get on his outside that’s going to make it
Really hard for hero star wood on fire didn’t take the corner at all well last start and sort of dropped out so he’s drawn wide so he might be in a bit of trouble from his draw see you again on the speed map is four horses back on the rail on his back
Will be Jerry cha he’s Jerry and Nick Jerry cha you’ve got a couple of really nice rides coming up on on Wednesday night see you again is is one a horse that well you’re the only man to have won on him so that’s always a
Positive yeah I um I ride this horse a lot and and I think he um he a good form now and last time he went good and he’s already went good in a good draw so this time looking forward um he will won the best good good race for me just on that
Run last time Jerry I mean he he noticeably running on very well at the death behind what could be quite a smart winner in Golden long I guess plenty of positives to take out of the performance coming into Wednesday night yeah and and
Like I say he when he got a good draw he always um performed well and I think we easy to handle this race yeah Jerry run the C plus three course um his only win came on the C course is that a positive in your mind the fact that it’s a
Similar sort of course this time around yeah I think so uh um I think c will will good for him because he he always have a good performance and and yeah you mentioned that draw as well he’s got gate four so I guess from where you are
You’d be you’d be happy enough with where he’s drawn yeah I maybe just jum him and and be where he comfortable and get a hopefully get a cover for him and he’ll be be settle and and finish home come strong and just the nature of the
Race there Jerry as well I mean it looks rather open a few of those races um at the valley this week do I guess he finds his chance again I know he doesn’t win very often but he’s usually sort of there or thereabouts isn’t he yeah he he
Only win one times before but he always uh very um one very close and I I I hope he he can get some um good position and he he will he will win again yeah it’s Jerry Chow talking see you again l motion Paul he is going to be running
Third in the replay are about to see Kell de fourth happy Trio seventh wood on fire um an excuse this night he’s over due lyrical motion he’s got the perfect draw on the best course for Barry number one can he deliver this week well look he’s been placed in his
Last three or does he drop down a grade and CU he’d be a very good bet when if he gets down to class five he’s obviously capable here look I thought he was there to win this race but he only stayed on there for third and obviously er’s feeling weing pretty well
Didn’t he he did indeed thus you’re going to make a case for this horse which is winning har who certainly improves since coming to Happy Valley and into this grade this is two starts ago I wanted to show this race he’s actually a run again he was on the rail
And nothing was making ground on the row the reason I’m showing this race is watch buddy it’s going to be one of the favorites and one of the feature races race number seven uh you can see also in those blue and pink colors that’s heroic Valor that’s come out in one super
Eagle’s been racing well exuberan has been racing well and look at him just coming into the screen late there a really good run from him he’s said these three runs and I think he’ be 20s plus uh as such um it could be a good long
Shot all right so there you go winning hard it is winning hard I like the way he did that there you go winning out he’s on top uh and Tony Cruz had a big long a long shot winner didn’t he Fon the other day so let’s hope that he can
Do one here at Happy Valley as well see you again we heard from Jerry there high Ro Soldier Zack pon the board he’s one of 58 he’s down at his 55 rating and this gorgeous Vitality in on a uh Place line he’s one of 59 and 54 uh is his
Current rating so I just put him in on a minor line 6845 l hson d Ste winning heart to victory in race number Five we try and find a winner now for race number six there’s a few hopes in amongst them it is a last 4 1200 met race and to gy a last start winner carries an extra 3 lb the universe is on the class drop party Warrior both winds
Have been coar and distance ever Victorious has the tongue tie going on Ernest fings had a good start to the season with a win in the second next to his name WI a draw again for Sight Victory Chung fats now with Michael Chang poan way comes back in distance
And super Eagles placed his last two from the middle of the line Gates he’s drawn out in barrier number 12 so that will force his hand to go back super Regal po but e universe who has got a win and a couple of placings in class
Four leads them up he looks the only leader in the race too and hub Bowman does know this horse well uh when he did win off 56 he’s rated 59 Harmony and home normally goes back but he might be slightly forward with no Pace in the race Earnest feeling will get a good
Race a run P Wen settle a little bit closer along with Glory B who did go back at down the straight 1,000 he’s up to 1200 Tong fat for the new state Midfield and as you say super eagle and side Victory hasn’t shown much early gug speed T last out winner reasonably well
In at the weights following that Victory does like Happy Valley and spots Beauty Destiny a bit of distance at the top of the straight he Paul’s consistent enough two-time winner from 15 starts but he’s never gone back to back yeah I don’t know if he’s going to get the race run
To suit they went look at his split here Beauty Destiny you can see him starting to to fade there now and to gy got the perfect run came down on the outside and and won well so uh yeah I just just wonder if he’s going to get the race run
To sup so may be no back to back for it to gy this week Super Eagle he’s a little bit like lyrical Motion in the previous isn’t he he’s racing very very well getting close to a class drop but just finds one or two to beat him and
There he is wi out turning for home yeah he’s sort of a victim of his own sort of consistency there isn’t he because if he drops a grade he’d be a very good B down on grade look he’s running well at the moment gon beller’s the winner of this
Race and did win it nicely but um yeah I just I just like he just can’t get his nose in front can he that’s the problem I’d have winning line isn’t he Super Eagle horse number 12 uh we’ve got Ernest feeling coming up he’s going really well Jamie Richards has had him
For a couple of starts for a win and a second party Warriors making ground on the inside for Fifth and Hing in home he’s just not as sharp as he once was he’s getting on a bit in age yeah he is a bit as you say in his feelings G
Really well at the moment he should get the perfect run look party Warrior must be due to run a good race um he’s 10 rating points lower than his last win he’s off this rating of 56 uh he was momentarily held up outside you can see there outside Earnest feeling so he did
Lose his momentum a little bit so I’m am going to include him I think I think a win from him looks close enough and healthy healthy has gone up in grade and won since that race to so the format of it is strong lucky quality is our last
Race replay uh he ran second in this over the big effort trolled poorly over 1600 leading into it so came back in trip what about going back up to the 1200 this week yeah that’s that’s just a little bit of a query here for me with
Going up and the horse that did win this life is good um likey he changed stables and he did win nicely didn’t he a good enough run from Lucky quality but again I don’t know if he’s going to get the race run to suit with no Pace in the
Rest you’ve always had a bit of time for PO on way he is also coming back in trip from the 1400 last time and you watched closely his track work track work’s been good um leading into it he’s had two trials at hey Valley as well both trials
Have been very good so look I I think he’s he’s going to get his opportunity and what what I think is quite an open race here on top yeah I put him on top PO on way uh he goes there on top now e universe should get an easy lead in
Front I think he’s an opportunity party Waring glor B now he should be I’ve got four I think will be big prices in this race Glory B I think is going to be a big price as well he just hit the one start did make a little bit of ground
Down the straight 1000 at charton he’s never been a Happy Valley all his trolls have been at chunga but he’s looks the horse type horse it could suit the valley 10235 and there it is from Paul go wide the suggestion for the first leg of the late Treble couple of class three races to finish Friday night’s program the first of them race number seven over the 1200 M and lightning bolts one two from from five Co and distance fever Shaler third on the all weather last start lucky Archangel six time winner Co and
Distance Beauty Glory was a winner two starts ago Golden Empire has his second look at the valley and we’ve got Street conqueror off a trial of fourth behind race winner at shtin Super Goldie and watch buddy a last winner has his first go in this grade denfield leads watch
Buddy and Beauty Glory the line of three up front ball yeah denfield can be a you way so if he doesn’t lead I think lak angel will well whatever happens I think watch Buddy’s going to get himself into a perfect position Beauty Glory might
Kick on and go to the front as well from a wide draw Golden Empire try and slot in arm Eagle should get a nice run and then back to bonsa she should be back be shur from 10 I think we’ll have to go back lightning bolt is going to be ridden by Jerry
Chow Jerry race seven you ride lightning bolt at Happy Valley um you’ve only ridden him just the once that was last time but it was a very good run yeah first time ride this horse and and he he went good for me and last time this this
Time got a better draw again and but uh Daniel will tell me to to be more quiet on him earlier stage and and hope he won home strong he was proving himself Jerry real sort of decent horse on the all weather but since he’s come to Happy Valley obviously he’s shown some really
Good form winning a couple of times I guess now it gets harder for him up in the handy cat but your two pound claim will certainly help that would that be would that be your opinion as well yeah um he he weigh thing is is a bit high
For him now but he went in two race already and but he last time he went good so I I I think I think he still got have some um um competitive for for this field and and I think he will if if if the pace or everything going okay he
Will he will run home strong strong again do you think he’s quite relling on a strong Pace I know you got back on him last time you’re draw on six um do you think a strong pace is what he needs and and what about the draw draw where you
Are sort of middle of the line I guess you can sort of you know go wherever you want from there yeah I think the pace important for him but the more important for him is um um he need to settle and he he he can perform well if he not
Settle he he fighting he will he he he W have a good T of foot yeah yeah he certainly does set the standard here you joint top rated as for yourself Jerry you’re up to 12 winners this season we’re only up to sort of Christmas not
Quite into the the new year as yet 22 last season you must be happy with the way things are going yeah now getting more support and and uh it seem to be um going well and and got some nice H like SAU Chi and some yeah
Yeah yeah they must be two that you always look forward to those two they’ve been really good servants to you haven’t they yeah they they they all going well and and um yeah so happy about that yeah that’s Jerry Chow talking lightning bolt with Nick a americ to spec so is a
Pretty consistent horse Paul he’s in this replay with Bon AA she made some L ground but he comes from behind her and beats her home quite convincingly yeah so he’s the one to put in of the two the thing with him though he’s never won in
This grade before he’s had a couple of placings now he just struggles to get his nose in front in this particular grade but he’s hard to leave out on a place line because he’s so consistent and again he runs nicely once again here slightly awkward draw in seven might
Just have to go back Viva shur last out on the all weather third over 1200 M also he has been to the valley before but that was over, 1650 barrier 10 on the C plus3 does make it tricky it does doesn’t it he’s going to have to go back
I think from that wide draw um that’s just a little query he didn’t win over 1300 M um in the UK before he got here so coming back to the 1200 shouldn’t be a problem uh here on at Happy Valley or the 1200 I should say look at not a bad
Form race Toronado Phantom’s been running well recently but um yeah just worry about the draw right that’s V shello from the wide draw but no concerns for you with the draw of watch buy you’re coming up in grade quiet TR but a good trial since this win uh last
Time on the 29th of November nice win I thought here he’s won two of his last three starts and fact he this horse um he got the right run but I think he’ll get the right run once again from a nice draw in barrier number five Gallen Val’s
Com out of this race and one super Eagles been consistent exuberant finished off nicely and I don’t mind the one finishing down the outside winning heart at a price earlier in the night so I think he’s he’s it’s a good uh he’s a good chance not the worst Booker rides
Either for Alexi Bell no he’s got a couple winners there I think as well I quite like Hercules earlier in the card as we said so look I like him I’m going to put him on top watch buddy uh he goes on top for me denfield will need to jump
But um if he does he’s little away in the past here at Happy Valley AER to speo and lightning bolt in there for fourth 11 981 after an open race number six Paul very keen on a win BET Race seven number 11 watch Buddy the last is race number eight second of the class three races this one is over the 1650 M Silver Sonic and tobian Prince both last start winners loyal baby raced wide at his racetrack return sixth generation has the blinkers coming off storm Legends placed six from
14 course and distance D Stars two-time track and distance winner we’ve got red claim with the pacifiers off in Star contact not too far off a class drop he did race wide last time Toby and Prince leads from Barry number nine Paul he had gate 511 last time 18 Palms Silver Sonic
Both in good spots 18 Palms Drew has draw barrier number four so he drew 12 last time really had to work so had a clear excuses I think he can get outside the leader here Silver Sonic last night one will get the perfect run one once
Again I think R clay might not be too far away Quantum patch was wide most away at his last start he should get a good run back to precise Express I think sixth generation from his draw is going to have to go all the way to the
Back before we get to the replays Nick spoke to the rider of last start winner Silver Sonic it’s Zack person Zach Silver Sonic was a willing partner for you on on JC night and you retained the ride which I imagine you’re pleased about yeah I thought his win was
Good he’s still lightly raced he got himself into a good spot um all B amongst Runners during the run but when the Gap presented I thought he got through there really nicely he’s got a bit more to do this time in Zach obviously top end of this grade not the
Strongest class three I hasten to add but um last time out he sort of showed that there might still be a bit more to come yeah I I think there is um like I said he’s lightly raced and I was quite taken with his last performance so you
Know he seems to be going the right way you’d know better than anybody the importance obviously of a good draw on the C plus3 is drawn two so that would make your life that bit easier as well for sure it will um I won’t have to try
And Chase a position I’ll just fall into one that uh is comfortable for me and hopefully we can just get a similar run to last time always nice to get on francis’s horses your strike rate with him this season is pretty good I think it’s sort of top end of about 36% so
Long may that continue he trains a lot of winners so he’s a good man to be riding for and you know I don’t ride a lot for him but when I do it uh they generally chances and they run to form so yeah good to be uh getting some support from his
Table here’s that replay again Paul with Silver Sonic and Quantum patch one and two in that race what we don’t see in this replay is the work that Quantum patch has done leading up to the home turn and even the home turn he very wide all Beauty’s been racing well enough he
Sneaks through late into third yeah he goes in for me as well all Beauty um it was a better run from him and he’s quite well rated now but look Zack got the perfect run on silveron but there’s nothing saying he won’t get a really good run once again from barrier to he
Should it’s just 7 lbs difference now with Quantum patch who had the tough run these two went clear I think it’s the Quinella once again they were well clear of anything else all Beauty did as you say poked in there for thir easy as that Quantum patch over Silver Sonic of the
Others torian Prince also comes here with winning form Zack wrote him this night lot of money for him he’s going to possibly lead on the speed map but might have to do some work to get there he might from the C from Baran 9 on the C+
Three course and he was declared Aur two starts ago so that’s just a little bit iffy for me um that that that’s what put me off I didn’t put him in in the end you can see precise Express making up a little bit of ground there’s a bit of
Money for him this night as well uh he finished off nicely enough but um look I’m happy to watch these ones toan Prince goes up 5 pound for that win finally it’s 18 PS so’s no stranger to Happy Valley couple of Trials just needs does he need things to go exactly his
Right way is he just a quirky sort of horse yeah he does look he had he’s he had these he’s had two trials since his last day he drew 12 and had to work really hard and dropped away so clear excuses there it was a really tough trip
Barrier for is more his go he’s only had eight starts here in Hong Kong and uh he has W one and he’s been placed in four the other so in saying that he’s quite a consistent horse you know uh and this is his go 1650 at hey Valley and because of
That record enough to make it to the top four yeah I did I did include him uh on a minor line but he does go in I think it’s going to be that same Corella but I think Quantum patch can overturn Silver Sonic they’re the two standouts for me
And then 18 palms and all Beauty 4196 there it is that is a preview for Happy Valley on Friday night we’ve got an eight race program C+ 3 and the first gets underway at 10 minutes past 7 local time
