Happy valley 7:40

Tomodachi Kokoroe

golden link

both win

 

Tomodachi Kokoroe
a relative newcomer and lightly raced has shown plenty including the last twice this season in class above has stall one . Instead of reaching for the headgear they’ve booked  zac purton, golden link hasn’t won for a while but was just touched off latest….

Happy valley 8:10
Whizz kid
And
Kurpany
Both win
Majestic star
Each way

Look the two class runners in this contest. Whizz kid has the inside stall while progressive kurpany will have to break rank or be held up from stall 9.
Majestic star runs from stall six and has not been seen since a staying on second over six furlongs has to be of huge interest trying the minimum for the first time and with top jockey ANDREA ATZENI riding makes each way appeal. 
* This looks a very classy affair and two other horses worth a mention from a future perspective are nervous witness having first run of the season and season’s wit who steps up in class here. Both very decent and will interesting to see how these two go in this company.

Seasons wit under Zac purton destroyed this field up with the pace along with kurpany shared the early work before pulling away in the final 200 different class eased down to finish 3.5 lengths clear. Whoosh. Earlier Tomodachi  Kokoroe romped home.

happy valley

happy Angel 

each way

Dazzling fellow

win

river alwin runs here and has finally been acclimatised on the rock runs here as Happy Angel this ex Hannon horse was last seen  in England down the field at royal ascot off a three figure mark. Opened up here off 73 and had to fall thirty pounds to land breakthrough win latest up half a stone here and priced accordingly. Out of Dark Angel has been hit hard with a seven pounds rise but rated 96 when winning at Newmarket under Jamie Spenser may 2021. 

Dazzling fellow won  well last time after a drop down to career low. Handled by Hugh Bowman last run and the booking of the champion jockey Zac Purton is significant and he is on a five timer today.

big red

june planet

both win

pegasus general

each way

andrea atzeni

I highlighted his exploits yesterday to pick out Ballymount boy and he’s been seen to good effect at today's meeting and he is fast becoming the ‘punters pal’ on the rock. is on a hat trick this morning and is getting some great bookings and it would be no suprise if he can place the general here.

June plant is also on a three timer and is dangerous up in grade remaining unexposed here.

Big red has suggested a win is not far away and is drawn to win.

MANA KAHUNA

EACH WAY
This horse enters the stable of SAINT JUDE today 

Figures

4-807066067510807899-706866156798

just two wins from 31 runs and only place at the start of this sequence.

Last win in July ( 150/1) has seen this horse a total of 97 lengths in areas but last win was preceeded by a run too bad to be true could be that improvement is due soon according to Murphy’s lore and the law of  aforementioned saint .

Romantic Charm

each way

a run in four of twelve in Australia latest under this jockey may help here.

BEAUTYVERSE

Win

beautyverse has not won since Juvenile debut off a mark of 82 but the horse he beat is now rated 95 and thus runner put up a career best last time out in a higher grade when finishing second. Had not placed since winning and runs off a career low mark down in class. A win is imminent and everything looks to be in place today. Best caught today and unlikely to get a better opportunity than here in this company.

There has to be a reason for sliding down from a group winner but the placing signals better times ahead of not today….

””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””””

I’ve given up posting in two places at once it is impossible unless you do the race reading hours beforehand.

I’ve been to war overnight and backed Equinox in this morning’s Japan cup and the call on the racing forum was to take the odds on, but also to take the 7/4 on the distance of 3+lengths winning margin. He had a suicidal fraction to race after and turned on the afterburners in the home straight to win in sensational style. He had the assistance of stall 2 and the position did him no harm at all. Had he been forced to pace set after a record breaking run just a month ago their may have been a less convincing outcome but the draw was a huge help as was the pace. It isn’t after timing as the selection is listed in several places on that forum.

I GIVE

Win

Beauty Crescent 

Wings of war

both each way

i give

on a five timer and Andrea Atzeni rides for the third time.

Front running style suits this horse and if allowed any kind of lead on this track will be going away again at the end. Has only had to regain lead at the start of this run and has been smooth passage ever since and won going away last time so all depends on what side of the bed jockey has got out of today.

beauty crescent 
second selection yet to win in Hong Kong but won a listed stakes race for Ger Lyon’s in Ireland last September.

wings of war 

mill reef Newbury duty free listed winner two years ago off triple figure ratings. Always going to need run today on debut but throw in at a realistic level and worth looking out for to see how much is needed in future to score in this grade.

TURTLE AGAIN 

win

Won for the first time recently dropped in class.

ran a career best when last here in October and has since been knocking on the door in three runs at happy valley culminating in a win there last time.

returns here in strong order and could win again. Was a full twenty pounds under opening mark last week so should have plenty to play with here.

Good second but always held by former Irish maiden winner thirty six pounds well in. Ex cornman ( Ger Lyon’s) colourful Barron.

Invincible sage

win

highly progressive ( how many times have we heard that?) but has stepped up to the plate dropped to the minimum distance and has found plenty both times the last two runs here to win cosily. Up in grade here and runs minus Hugh Bowman. Zac Purton a very able replacement and this horse brought up trainers 600 th winner last time. Jockey booking and step up in class suggests he has a good one here.

Invincible sage

and the class dropping

 Victor the winner may have this race between them neither will be much of a price but it’s an intriguing tussle worth just watching.

Invincible sage has now won three on the bounce but conditions here will test this progressive sort.

Victor the winner is proven group vlsss but drops to the minimum for the first time.

a watching brief in a race where invincible sage may just edge out the classy victor the winner. Hugh Bowman battling back from serious injury is regaining strength in the saddle and rides a full book tonight. He’s on victor and this race is more interesting for the information the outcome will present..,
