Happy Valley racing takes place on Wednesday, 11 November with a 9-race program set down for the Happy Valley racetrack.

We have the best bets picked from across the meeting with a Best Bet and other value selections for  Happy Valley racetrack.


Race 4: No.3  Golden Brilliant


The Caspar Fownes-trained galloper is second-up tonight and ticks enough boxes here to suggest he will play a leading role in the outcome of the event.

Last start, the Sweynesse gelding resumed after six months off the scene and wasn’t disgraced when finishing fifth in a Class 4 Hcp, here over 1200m.

From gate one, Alex Badel settled him mid-field on the fence early before creeping closer nearing the turn, then in the run home, he was held-up at a vital time until he bullocked his way through a needle-eye opening and while little chance of winning, still hit the line well to finish two lengths from the winner.

Drawn well again in gate three tonight, he maps to be box-seating on settling with James Orman as the new pilot.

Already a winner when second-up and a two-time winner at the track and distance, there’s plenty to like about his chances of victory in this contest.


Race 7: No.5  Leading Agility


The Danny Shum-trained galloper is high-flying after two starts back and as a track specialist, he looks a genuine winning chance in this event.

Last start, the D'argento gelding went one better than his first-up second placing when he clobbered his rivals in a Class 3 Hcp, here over 1200m.

Drawn out in gate nine (of 12), Ellis Wong settled him second at the leader’s girth to the turn, then on straightening, he got the better of the pace-setter and quickly took and went on to cross the line 1.5 lengths clear in the end.

Even fitter for those two runs under his belt, he draws well in gate six and maps to settle better than mid-field with Jerry Chau taking over as the reinsman tonight.

Three wins and two minor placings from seven starts here paints the picture and already a winner when third-up, you want to be on him in this contest.


Race 9: No.5  Bravefield


Danny Shum saddles-up Bravefield here who is third-up and looks ready to make his Happy Valley debut a winning one in this event.

Last start, the American-sired gelding showed plenty of improvement when he finished fifth in a Class 2 Hcp, over 1600m at Sha Tin.

Drawn wide in gate 10 (of 13),  Zac Purton settled him at the tail of the field to the turn, before sticking to the inside, he weaved his way through traffic and over the final 150m, was finishing better than any other, beaten just 2.5 lengths on the line.

The barrier Gods have been more generous here as he will leave the machine from gate five and maps to settle near mid-field with cover.

Zac Purton remains in the saddle for this assignment and fitter for those two runs back, the four-year-old just needs a trouble-free run to be there at the finish of this contest.
