Happy Valley Race 6 - Violet Hcp (C3)
STORMING DRAGON (5) has been racing well at Sha Tin recently and heads back to this track and trip today where he boasts a good record. He can be up on the speed from the inside barrier and Teetan remains in the saddle. Should be very strong late in the race and looks the one to beat. EASON (3) got a long way back last start at this track and trip but maps for a much better run this time around. He goes well on the fresh side and while he's 700 days between wins, he looks right on the cusp. Looks set for a bold effort once again. CHATEAUNEUF (4) is better than he showed last start at Sha Tin and can return to form heading back to this horse and distance. The winkers replaces the blinkers now and he should go close if he can run to form. BUNDLE OF CHARM (1) drops right back in trip which looks to suit and his recent trial was solid. Can make his presence felt.
