Odds Last Updated: March 9, 2022, 10:15pm (AEDT)

Inside draws over the 1200m are a big plus. (4) Carry The Diamond dropped into Class 5 last start and now comes to Happy Valley, so this will be his easiest assignment for a while and Blake Shinn goes on.

(8) One Step Ahead is a bit of a bridesmaid but has a win and three placings from his last four starts. Drew awkwardly in his past two so should appreciate the good draw tonight.

Tip: (8) One Step Ahead $7.00 Bet365

Also Backing: (4) Carry The Diamond $9.00 Bet365

Betting Strategy: 0.5 units WIN Carry The Diamond, 0.5 units WIN One Steph Ahead

(6) Joyful Mood started favourite on debut and was given every conceivable chance from the inside draw. He would need to improve on that to win but I think he will as its not easy to win on debut in HK, especially at Happy Valley. Purton sticks, tongue tie goes on for the first time and he draws well again.

(7) Nordic Combined drew wide on debut and went back over the 1000m. Finished off in the second-fastest final sectional, now draws the inside gate so can settle closer and go well at odds.

Tip: (6) Joyful Mood $3.80 Bet365

Value: (7) Nordic Combined $13 Bet365

Betting Strategy: 1 unit WIN Joyful Mood, 0.5 units WIN Nordic Combined

(1) Nimble Nimbus comes to Happy Valley for the first time tonight. Two starts back he beat Leading Fortune, who has since won its next three starts. One of those was last start for Nimble Nimbus who ran 5th after working across to lead from the wide gate. Drawn softly tonight in barrier 2, that’s a very good form line to bring and at each way odds he really appeals.

Tip: (1) Nimble Nimbus $6.00/$2.20 Bet365

Betting Strategy: 1 unit E/W Nimble Nimbus
