    • A new Hong Kong record for consecutive wins, back-to-back Speed Series and The Everest (1,200m) victories, another Triple Crown victor and a fifth straight Group One Hong Kong Cup (2,000m) success. In a sport as unpredictable as horse racing it can be dangerous looking too far into the future, but that is what could easily lie ahead in 2026 for the city’s two champion gallopers, Ka Ying Rising and Romantic Warrior. The world’s best sprinter and highest-earning racehorse of all time kicked off...View the full article
    • I would say that makes the likelihood of her contesting the Proisir Plate to try and claim the $500K bonus, very likely. It is a $50K bonus to Stephen Marsh Or, if they don't win and the bonus is still live, the Howden Mile 3 weeks later. All this as a precursor to a Spring campaign in Aus. A lot can go wrong in that time of course and may depend on the success in any Autumn racing campaign after the Kiwi, which is apparently her next race.  No lead ups

As one of the original owners, who sold half our share, the deal with Yulong clearly states it stays with Marsh for duration of racing career, and under his management. Only concession we made was she could race in their colours. Sure, she will probably race in Aussie, but transfer there?…not a chance!

Reality is that you can make money on harness racing but probably only a small percentage do! Have followed harness racing for decades and I can tell you that there are not many tipsters on TV that are actually trying to do you a favour to make money lol The ones getting paid are not good tipsters or they would not be needing to charge you!    
    • Matthew Chadwick’s wish to reunite with Patch Of Cosmo has come true and the four-time Group One-winning jockey is excited about his prospects in Sunday’s Classic Mile at Sha Tin. Chadwick regained the ride after Zac Purton picked Brazilian import Sagacious Life from a plethora of Classic Mile options just before he booted home Patch Of Cosmo in his stunning return from injury on January 18. Chadwick guided Manfred Man Ka-leung’s quality galloper to victory in two of his three rides on the son...View the full article
