Tonight's Happy Valley card is the final meeting before Chinese New Year, with 9 races set for decision on the "B" course.
Rain is forecast on Wednesday morning in Hong Kong, but the showers are expected to ease off at night.
The track should not be affected too much, with the going expected to be Good.
Joao Moreira has continued his good form after scoring a double at Sha Tin on Sunday. He has 9 mounts tonight, all of which are strong winning chances.
This is Christophe Soumillion’s second last meeting for this season and he comes here with 9 winners to his name.
Christophe has a solid book of rides tonight, including Royal Bomb and Tornado Twist. If these two horses jump well, he can ride a double.
Horse Racing Tips from Charene Woo
Happy Valley Race 3 #6 Owners’ Star $3.60
Owners’ Star is a course and distance winner last season at the rating of 65, so he should be competitive now rated 52 in Class 4 grade.
He drops back from 2200m to 1800m for this assignment, where he is much better suited with a track and distance record of 5:1-0-1.
In a huge push for his chances, Zac Purton gains the ride and he jumps from the inside gate.
Will be hard to hold out.
Happy Valley Race 5 #4 Street Scream $6.00
Street Scream had some setbacks last season, but took the summer break to recover
In his three runs since returning to the track, he's raced in consistent form over the 1200m.
His last start performance was eye-catching where from gate 11, he had to go back in a race that suited front-runner. However, Street Scream showed his impressive turn of foot to run fourth.
He'll jump from gate 4 tonight, which will allow him to go forward and lead.
His current rating makes him competitive in this grade and he can win tonight.
