The dust is settling on a big opening week of the 2025-26 Hong Kong racing season and it seemed like as good a time as any to run through a few things to look out for this term. The return of the Warrior It’s now been over five months since Romantic Warrior raced and the clock is ticking if trainer Danny Shum Chap-shing wants to get the world’s highest-earning racehorse ready for a tilt at a fourth straight Group One Hong Kong Cup (2,000m) victory in December. Last seen running a brave second in...View the full article -
Im advocating for current leadership that implement policies that are able to fund racing at cambridge at a level that sees particpation numbers maintained in the future. i'm pro racing at cambridge,just not in the form it currently is. the reason punters moan about cambridge is because its not a good look fo the sport. the race i just watched for an interest,you had the out the gate blokes bet on yet another horse that sat at the back and made no attempt to get into a winning position. That was claude.Probably wouldn't have won had it made a move earlier anyway,but it would have been nice to have thought it may have been wanting to win,but thats not the impression you got, watching the race. Then the horse following it,the major win mover,rough and ready,well its driver showed no interest whatsoever in trying to even place.Really strange drive. I'm not sure whether that was deliberate or just an indication of her lack of tactical thinking.But thats what cambridge dishes up each week.No one ever moves up mid race. boring. -
The article was about Mark Walker's unraced Caulfied and 1000 Guineas hopefuls and Damask Rose is a 4 year old. But I agree, the way she finished off from last at the 200m into 5th against some pretty good horses, augurs well. Not sure why they have Hostility as unraced, as 3 starts now in NZ, hardly earth shattering in the Colin Meads -

Chris So Wai-yin has high hopes that Lightness Of Music can make a winning return at Sha Tin on Sunday despite fearing the exciting debut winner might need further than 1,000m. One of several progressive youngsters unveiled by So last season, Lightness Of Music backed up his strong trial form to cruise to a two-length success up the straight in June. The performance left a lasting impression on So and champion jockey Zac Purton, who teams up again with the now four-year-old in Sunday’s Class...View the full article -
It is the Point. The racing at Cambridge is Important . Many many north Island tracks have been closed in past years and there's barely any left 😧. This has BEEN HAppening for Years . It's not a recent developement at All. Ruakaka, New Plymouth , Hutt Park , scenes of some great action for many. Now Out the Gate. and some say Cambridge is a Burden on the system ? it's in the Waikato , great horse country ?. SURELY surely you should see the need to run it ? , whether it's 45 horses or even less ? Once you stop running =It's over. I HATE the idea of selling Franklin as the ATC already in crippling debt will be out of business if DON"T HAVE ASSETS (and somewhere for the good Pukekohe folk to train as well) or reduced assets is just asking for trouble. Victoria still trades and run's races the same as NZ (same population) even while 80 mill odd in debt , because it has the ASSET of MELTON Park track. most of the country tracks still function because people CARE , and still race them when 45 or 86 horses turn up on the day. It's a Sport. Let them race. If you're worried about half sized fields then Cut the prizemoney in half then. it probably will come to that at some stage. Stopping them altogether is silly though. I remember being Matamata on-course only meeting once racing for $1000. Lightning Blue won his Very first start that night. Shipped off to Aus then. And came back to Addington 2 years later to win the Interdominion and NZ CUp double. was easier for the horse at Cambridge 🤣😉👍 Auckland has many Millionaire owners who pour thousands into the game in yearling purchases , training and driving to WORLD class levels by the participants , and Metro Class fast horses . Of COURSE they should race for the BIGGER dollars. more the merrier. Don't let the gallopers owners/trainers have it all 😅🏇. ENTAIN have PLENTY💰 The HRNZ is doing the best they can for those still going. I get the point that it's not a great betting product , but as you pointed out with your thoughts on Menangle driving, and QLD race driving, it's not a great betting product in Aus either. I don't even watch most of the races. Just if someone I know is in it. In FACT No-one in Brisbane barely knew the Interdominion was on .No ads. no nothing. I could of asked a thousand people, anywhere in Brisbane, who won the Queensland Derby at Albion Park and would be likely to get ZERO correct answers. the game is gone.
