Happy Valley (M2) - Wednesday, 5 September 2018

summary
This is a race where Zac Purton has a solid chance aboard SKY MELODY at a price close to making him backable. Whilst it is the early favourite, I expect that it will tend towards where I’ve marked it ($2.80) by race-start time. He has been costly for us (irregular heart rhythm last start) but of course he has also had his excuses. However, his recent trial was sound and he does look clearly the best chance to win this race. What should help is that there is genuine speed in this event with MULTIGOGO, LAND GRANT and CLOUD NINE amongst those likely to go forward. Multigogo has won 4/5 at Happy Valley and merits respect again, particularly if those on-pace and close to the rail are advantaged on the night. And that would be a case in point for Land Grant. Not much appeals outside of those three, but primarily Sky Melody.
