There’s been some wild betting fluctuations this morning. (5) Touch Faith made his debut back in January but was held up for basically the entire straight. He never got a clear crack at them. He was sent for a spell straight after that as he presented with a fever a few weeks later. He resumes today with three trials under the belt, winning two of them. Moreira rode him in the latest trial and is back aboard for raceday for trainer John Size, and he comes up with barrier 1 which is a huge advantage over 1200m on the C+3 course at Sha Tin. With even luck, I think he goes close and with $6.50 available, he’s a good each way bet.

Tip: (5) Touch Faith $4.40 Bet365

Betting Strategy: 1 unit WIN Touch Faith

Another one at each way odds here is (9) Good Buddy courtesy of a wild betting fluctuation. There’s currently $17 available across the board which is ludicrous! At Bet365 he is $3.85! There’s a lot to like about his set up for today. He ran at Happy Valley last start, which was his first run back from a 10-week break. He drew wide, went back and finished off in the fastest final 400m of the race to run 4th. That was over 1200m, he steps up to 1400m today, gets Zac Purton on board for the first time and comes up with barrier 1. That draw is a huge benefit over 1400m on the C+3 course at Sha Tin and when you add the fact Purton is on today, there’s plenty to like. Purton has a 25% strike rate for trainer David Hall, so when he books him, it usually means they are ready to win.

Tip: (9) Good Buddy $17/$4.60 Sportsbet

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.
