(2) Noble Boyz hasn’t had a whole lot go right all prep and has drawn wide in most starts, hence been ridden negatively. He now drops into Class 5 and Douglas Whyte puts Zac Purton straight on and they come up with a low draw. Expect a more positive ride here and this is a very winnable race.

Tip: (2) Noble Boyz $3.60 Bet365

Betting Strategy: 1 unit WIN Noble Boyz

Barrier 10 and Matthew Poon are hardly a combination that gives me confidence but I’m banking on (3) Flying Ace‘s ability. Went back from the wide barrier and still proved way too good to take his record to 3/3. The horse he beat has since run 2nd, while the horses that ran 3rd, 4th and 5th have all won their next starts, so the form is stacking up big time. Cops a big rise in the weights today but think he’s a smart operator.

Tip: (3) Flying Ace $1.95 Bet365

Betting Strategy: 3 units WIN Flying Ace

(7) Galaxy Witness is undefeated from two starts after winning on debut over 1000m and then again over 1200m. Finished off very strongly over 1200m and now steps up to 1400m for the first time. Gets an awkward draw but he will go home and produce his big finish. He’s also up into Class 3 for the first time and meets a couple of other smart horses today, but I think he’s still the one they all have to beat.

(8) En Point has won his past two and also rises into Class 3. He’s proven over the 1400m and Purton takes the ride at a light weight so was obviously keen to stick with. Draws ideally which might give him his chance of rolling the favourite.

Tip: (7) Galaxy Witness $2.80 Bet365

Also Backing: (8) En Point $6.50 Sportsbet

Betting Strategy: 1.5 units WIN Galaxy Witness, 0.5 units WIN En Point

Tim Geers

A trip to Hong Kong quickly had Tim hooked to the racing caper, maintaining the best place anywhere in the world on a Wednesday night is Happy Valley. He holds a strong interest in the Hong Kong form, along with the metropolitan racing in Sydney and Melbourne. He’s a fan of dry tracks, Zac Purton and takes particular interest in identifying patterns in the form. Tim wears many hats, juggling the roles of form analyst, jockey manager and racehorse owner.
