• HKJC Happy Valley Wednesday โ€” three races with genuine value this week

    Happy Valley midweek cards get overlooked because the field sizes are smaller and international punters default to weekend Sha Tin. But the local knowledge advantage at Valley is enormous if you track the trainer-jockey combinations carefully. This Wednesday three races stand out: Race 4 has a horse from Caspar Fownes' yard that ran a massive time figure last start on a dead track โ€” today's yielding should suit. Race 6 the top weight is racing off a mark 6lb too high based on its Timeform rating. Race 8 the pace scenario sets up perfectly for a hold-up horse drawn wide. All three should be examined for value.
