Our Happy Valley Horse Racing Tips for Wednesday’s meeting.
There is an 8-race program under the lights at Happy Valley. The rail moves to the B position for the meeting, and there is no rain forecast in the lead-up, which should mean racing will be on a Good surface. The feature is the Group 3 January Cup over 1800m (race 6).
The first race is at 7.10pm Hong Kong time which is 10.10pm AEST.
Best Bet
Gallant Valour (Happy Valley Race 5 No. 4)
Last-start winner at this track and distance to break his maiden on 20 December, after placing at the start before. He’s nicely drawn in barrier 2 and should be able to stalk the speed again. Can win again.

Best Each Way
Turin Mascot (Happy Valley Race 7 No. 3)
He was disappointing last start when he started favourite over 2200m and only placed.He drops back in distance to 1800m and gets pacifiers on for the first time. He’s won 5 of his 15 starts and looks a nice each-way bet.

Key Comments The track is in the heavy range. The rail is in the true position. The best bet comes up in the second race with Gibbons to steer. Best Bet Declichy Boulevard (Gosford Race 2 No. 8) Trials have been rock solid. Found open company too slick on debut but also had excuses on the day. Comes out of the right form race, finds Gibbons to ride and looks a major player in this suitable race. Hard to beat. Check odds

Key Comments The rail is in 3 metres. This track is ideal for horses that can sustain a long run to the line.

Best Bet Only Old Once (Pakenham Race 2 No. 8) Solid effort on debut when running 2nd and has been heavily tried to go one better in this. Allen rides from barrier 3 and there isn't much depth to this maiden. Expecting
