June 25 Hong Kong (Happy Valley) form analysis

Seasons Wit Can Outsmart All

RACE 1 (1,200M)

2 Winning Heart draws barrier 4 after two runs from gate 12, and that gives his chances a clear boost. He is well placed to pick up another win.

7 So Awesome maps well again from a soft draw and would not have many excuses. He was only beaten a neck last start and stays in the mix.

1 Triumphant Warrior drops in class and gets Zac Purton back on, which brings him right into it.

12 Multidarling is a lightweight chance. His recent runs have been encouraging and while hard to trust on a win line, he could fill a hole.

RACE 2 (1,200M)

5 My Day My Way has had no luck with barriers, so gate 8 is a small win. He has gone down a head in back-to-back runs and looks ready to go one better.

4 Monarch County might be looking for further but brings solid Sha Tin form to the Valley for the first time. He maps well and can be competitive.

7 New Power is holding form and will roll forward to take a position on speed. He gives himself every chance.

6 Fortune Warrior is tricky to catch but maps to lead from barrier 3 and gets the set-up to give a sight.

RACE 3 (1,200M)

1 Fun Elite drops back into Class 4 and that alone makes him hard to ignore. He has the speed to push forward and can make his own luck.

7 Victor The Rapid showed sharp improvement first-up for Pierre Ng, charging home into second. He is ready to go one better.

4 Thunder Prince had no luck last start, badly held up in the straight before diving through late to miss by a head.

10 Vulcanus is a 16-start maiden in the grade but has been consistent, placing in five of those, including back-to-back seconds. Drawn well in barrier 3 and must be kept safe.

RACE 4 (1,650M)
