TAI TAM HANDICAP
#8 Yee Cheong Spirit put in a strong effort to finish third from barrier 12 last start and now benefits from a low draw in barrier 1, giving jockey Vincent Ho the chance to position him more prominently. His recent trial was impressive, suggesting he’s primed to strike on his fourth attempt. #5 Giant Leap gets blinkers back on—his proven headgear—and a return to Happy Valley along with barrier 4 will bring out the best in him. #7 Happy Trio has trialled nicely between races and should thrive from barrier 3, which complements his on-pace style. #1 Gallant Valour is coming off a win and has been a consistent performer overall. Chance again.
