Midweek racing in Hong Kong pops up at Sha Tin rather than the standard venue of Happy Valley this Wednesday, but the eight-race card has a very Valley feel. Highlighting the action are a trio of Class 3 handicaps for horses rated 80-60, standard Happy Valley race fare. Race 3 will be contested over a straight 1,000 meters, race 7 over 1,400 meters, and race 8 at 1,200 meters.
