Trainer David Hayes and jockey Keith Yeung are poised to deliver a standout performance at Happy Valley on Wednesday, March 4, 2026, with two strong contenders in key handicap races. The duo's partnership could yield a lucrative double, highlighting their strategic prowess and form in the competitive racing scene.
Withallmyfaith Aims for Redemption in Sichuan Bipenggou Tourist Attractions Handicap
In the Sichuan Bipenggou Tourist Attractions Handicap scheduled for 2.50pm over the extended mile, the Hayes-trained Withallmyfaith is expected to benefit from a tactical adjustment. Last month, this son of Mongolian Khan led aggressively from the start but was overtaken near the finish, securing third place behind Mister Dapper and the skilled handicapper Max Que.
Despite that setback, Withallmyfaith remains a formidable competitor at his current handicap mark. If ridden with more restraint this time, he could accelerate in the home straight and maintain a lead through the closing stages. Potential rivals like Silvery Breeze and Fivefortwo pose threats but require a fast-paced race to excel, while Corleone appears to have missed crucial training ahead of this event.
Star Brose Targets Victory in Trans-Island Chinalink Handicap
Keith Yeung, who rides Withallmyfaith, also has an excellent opportunity to secure a win aboard Star Brose in the Trans-Island Chinalink Handicap at 11.40am over 11 furlongs. This son of Starspangledbanner achieved his maiden victory over the same course and distance in December, and this race has been a planned target since then.
Following a consistent training regimen, Star Brose enters this contest two weeks after an encouraging run, now carrying 15 pounds less than in his last win. With cheekpieces reapplied, his prospects look particularly promising, adding to the positive momentum for the Hayes-Yeung team.
