Plays for Wednesday morning at The Valley
Race 6 at 8.10am ET
Telecom Speed (5-1) Was able to get one more run in Class 4 after an easy win in his last at 10-1 after racing mid-pack and accelerated from the field with 150 to go after a couple love taps from Bowman. Should have plenty left from that effort and the nine pounds shouldn't be too much of an issue. Current favourite is the
Super Joy N Fun who won his debut at 12-1 but had to really get fight to the wire to get up by a head. Purton's runner
Golden Bull is breaking from the outside and prefers to run second.
Crystal Powerful gets a much better draw after closing in his last after racing wide.

Race 8 at 9.15am ET
Joyful Hunter (7-2) Beaten favourite two back after getting up at Sha Tin at 3-1, then raced in the back third of a 14 horse field three wide in the turn and five wide into the stretch and just lacked the needed kick to chase down the top three finishers. Now he's back at the track he's unbeaten at with Atzeni who's now had a trip with him. Hopefully he races a little closer to the lead here.
Race 9 at 9.50am ET
Beauty Infinity (2-1) Just missed as a beaten favourite with Purton riding him for the first time, was taken up going into the backside turn and raced a little rank for the next 100 metres. Raced two wide in the turn and then drifted out to the six path and almost chased down the pace stalking winner while beating the rail trip light weight third place runner by almost three lengths.
