Happy Valley Race 8 - Violet Hcp (C3)

GIANT BALLON (3) sets the standard after three straight 1200m wins at Happy Valley, the latest on 29/4 when leading throughout and holding FLYING WROTE (6) by 0.2L. FLYING WROTE (6) maps to stalk again and was strong late in that same race after settling midfield. STORMING DRAGON (7) is a danger back to 1200m here, having won at Happy Valley on 15/4 over 1200m by 1L and placed twice at the trip prior. SKY CAP (9) also appeals dropping back to 1200m after a 3rd over 1000m here on 22/4, having won his previous two 1200m runs at the track.

Comes off an 8-day freshen after winning a 1200m Sha Tin barrier trial on 12 May by 0.3L. Earlier Happy Valley runs at 1650m were below best, finishing 10th twice with 59kg and 60.5kg. Seven-time Happy Valley winner overall and four wins at 1200 suggest the drop back in trip suits. With Brenton Avdulla up for J J Size from barrier 9 and blinkers on, can feature with the right run.
