April 2 Hong Kong (Happy Valley) form analysis
-
RACE 1 (1,650M) 7 Wah May Wai Wai should roll forward and take up the lead. He will be giving a decent sight again, having drawn an inside gate while some key rivals have drawn wide.
1 Prestige Good ran third over this distance last time. He can go a step better in his fifth local outing.
2 Capital Legend drops back into Class 4, where he is a two-time winner from six and also steps back up to a more suitable trip. He is capable of bouncing back.
5 Harmony Galaxy's late surge into fifth last start was encouraging. With a genuine tempo up front, he looks ready to improve again.
RACE 2 (1,200M) 1 Lucky Generations was unlucky last time, held up from the 300m until passing the 100m before checking in 3¼ lengths away in ninth. He can make his presence felt in his first Class 5 start.
5 Talents Supremo gets a key jockey upgrade for his second start in Class 5, with Zac Purton taking the reins. Though drawn in barrier 10, he has what it takes to go close.
8 Winning Heart was caught wide in his last two runs. He is capable of bouncing back with a smoother trip from barrier 6.
2 Sweet Diamond warrants respect with his good Class 5 record. He can give a sight.
RACE 3 (2,200M) 9 Sharpen Bright is a model of consistency, having missed the top three just once from six starts this season. He will relish the rise to 2,200m with a strong record over the trip — two wins and two seconds from four runs — and looks hard to hold out.
8 Charity Gain can still improve. This is his second try at 2,200m, having finished third on his first attempt five runs back.
5 Fallon takes a sharp rise in trip from 1,800m to 2,200m, but he is back in good form with a win and a second in his last two starts.
