Happy Valley Race 3 - Seoul Hcp (C2)
COLOURFUL KING (8) made it 2 wins on the bounce when scoring comfortably here last time out. Andrea Atzeni has been the pilot in his last two wins, and a hat-trick is not beyond them. AURORA LADY (2) registered a strong win at this track two runs ago, then was a bold second here over 1200m last time out. Zac Purton knows him well, and they will be tough to beat in this suitable race. RED ELEGANCE (3) returns from a layoff of nine weeks. He put together a brace of wins here in February and will be ready to rumble fresh up. SON PAK FU (1) drifted back and never threatened when eighth last start over 1200m at Sha Tin. His record on this track is much better, and in his first start over 1000m, he can have a say in the outcome of this race. Each way value.

Form hard to fault. Returns from a 42-day let-up. Most recently made ground from midfield; 2nd of 12 at this track on March 19 over 1200m, 1.3 len behind Beauty Destiny carrying 58kg at $3. The race before that favourite; raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by 1.3 len at this track February 26 over 1200m defeating Prawns Eleven carrying 61kg at $3.90. Certainly worth another chance.

The race before that sat behind the speed prior to fading to run last of 12 at this track on March 19 over 1200m, 6 len behind Beauty Destiny with 57kg at $34. Likely to find this out of reach.

Comes here off a 42-day let-up. At the latest run raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by 0.8 len at this track March 19 over 1200m defeating Super Joy N Fun with 61kg at $6.30. The race before that ran last of 9 at Sha Tin on January 26 over 1200m, 4 len behind Gorgeous Win with 55kg at $12. Heading the right way and another bold showing is likely despite coming back in trip.

Chasing a hat-trick. Most recently favourite; came from midfield and won by 2 len at this track April 9 over 1000m defeating Youthful Spirits carrying 58kg at $3. The race before that favourite; raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by a nose at this track March 19 over 1000m defeating Youthful Spirits with 57kg at $6.40. Very smart and is a leading player again.
