R8 SEA EAGLE HANDICAP

-


Happy Valley (M28) - Wednesday, 12 December 2018

22:50 HK TIME

summary


This is a difficult race to finish the night but there might be one at reasonable odds worth playing in the form of MY ALLY. He has worked far too hard through the first half of his last two races and has actually battled-on pretty well in retrospect. From a low draw, he may take a sit, or certainly won’t have to work as hard to lead and he will run well. Hopefully we get a reasonable price about him – there is some early specking for the horse early on. HAR HAR HEART had a dream run last time and it will be a little tougher here, but he should be able to be in the finish again. LOOKING GOOD will appreciate the step up to a mile, although he needs to lift on that last run to figure here as the race overall only rated fairly. However, he comes in well-weighted and is capable of stepping up again with the rise in trip. SKY MELODY posted the best figures of any runner with his last win (race 17) but is effectively resuming again. His Happy Valley turf trial was solid work and he will be a major chance again to win this race if he is able to repeat anything like that run nearer the beginning of the season.

MY ALLY can set a GOOD speed overall with RELENTLESS ME laying up close. SICHUAN BOSS might work forward from barrier 12 with LOOKING GOOD and PRETTY BAUHINIA able to secure decent positions from their gates.
