The Fasig-Tipton Santa Ynez Stakes offered points–10-5-3-2-1–towards the GI Kentucky Oaks, and it was Look Forward (Bolt d'Oro–Troublesome by, Into Mischief) who found the wire in time to take home the loot and the opening leg of the filly series at Santa Anita on Sunday afternoon. A filly in the care of trainer Ben Cecil before he sadly passed away last fall, Look Forward was transferred to Michael McCarthy–a one-time Cecil assistant. The bay was the runner-up in the GII Starlet to close out her juvenile year and coming into the Santa Ynez she was marked as the 8-5 favorite. Rolling out of the gate, Look Forward tracked up the backstretch from third behind Silent Law (Tiz the Law) and with her cue by the top of the lane she seized the lead. Artisma (Munnings) had not thrown in the towel and that filly came with a run in the final jumps. Look Forward held the advantage though and she got to the wire first. The final running time was 1:25.42. Lifetime Record: 3-2-1-0. Sales History: $285,000 '23 KEESEP. O-Reddam Racing LLC; B-Woods Edge Farm, LLC & Ballyfair Bloodstock (Ky); T-Michael McCarthy.

Packing Angel gives Zac Purton a double. Photo: HKJC Packing Angel has emerged as a potential Four-Year-Old Classic Series contender after the gelding’s victory at Sha Tin on Sunday shunted Zac Purton to within eight wins of equalling Douglas Whyte’s Hong Kong record of 1,813 wins. Trained by Francis Lui and rated 63, Packing Angel (120lb) handled the rise in grade to Class 3 with aplomb, edging clear of Kaholo Angel (129lb) to win by three quarters of a length, impressing Purton. “He’s got a long way to go on ratings, but he’s a young horse on the way up. He’s improving all the time and it was a pretty soft win in the end. There’s a bit more there,” Purton said after sealing a double and taking his Hong Kong career tally to 1,805 wins. “Two wins is always a good result, but a couple of things didn’t quite go right in races – I had a few people taking me on, making it hard but that’s Hong Kong.” The HK$13 million Hong Kong Classic Mile (1600m) is run at Sha Tin on January 31 and is followed by the HK$13 million Hong Kong Classic Cup (1800m) on March 2 and the HK$26 million Hong Kong Derby (2000m) on March 23. Last season’s champion trainer, Lui shared training honours with John Size and David Hayes, with the trio snaring doubles. Lui also struck with Baby Crystal (135lb), who gave Frenchman Alexis Pouchin his second Hong Kong victory, clocking a slick 56.32s and winning by almost three lengths. Hayes moved into third position in the Hong Kong trainers’ championship with a brace, combining with Purton to win with Circuit Jolly before apprentice Ellis Wong guided Ariel to all-the-way success. 12-time Hong Kong champion Size continued his surge with a double, triumphing with Raging Blizzard for Hugh Bowman and Country Dancer under Karis Teetan. “There was pressure on and the tempo of the race suited him,” Size said of Raging Blizzard, who settled last before overwhelming his rivals for the second successive start. “He’s obviously done no work early and he got an inside run and saved a lot of energy. He was able to finish it off well. “There’s a Class 1 (1200m) for him (9 February), so we’ll have a look. He’s never been racing this well.” Bowman said: “He (Raging Blizzard) is very genuine, he has a beautiful attitude toward racing, he enjoys being left alone early but he’s there for you when you need him and he’s got a good record together now. He’ll head up to Class 1 and he won’t be out of place there.” Frankie Lor-trained Sword Point survived an objection before being declared the winner of the Class 2 Pak Tam Chung Handicap (1650m, dirt) and will now be considered for an overseas campaign. Lor hopes the 105-rater, unbeaten after two starts on dirt, will be invited to run in the US$1 million (approx. HK$7.7 million) Group 2 Godolphin Mile (1600m, dirt) at Meydan on April 5. Dylan Mo posted his first win of the season with a copybook ride on Danny Shum’s Super Legends. “I need to say a big thank you to the owner and trainer for giving me a chance to ride this horse,” Mo said. “In this time, it has been a bit hard for me but I will try my best 100 percent to ride these horses well. “I was told with this horse (Super Legends) that if I could not lead or the pace is too fast to get the box seat and it worked out well.” Another World overcame difficulties in the straight under Lyle Hewitson to continue Benno Yung’s strong form. “Nine times out of 10, you think you are just gone (when blocked for a run) and there’s nothing left but once the gap re-opened, I just felt him pick up the bridle again and I went with him,” Hewitson said of Another World’s chequered passaged in the straight. “Most horses can’t give two kicks, it was quite an impressive win, actually.” Hong Lok Golf made it two wins in a row, finishing strongly under Harry Bentley to confirm trainer Chris So’s high opinion of the Grunt four-year-old. “He’s a good horse. He drew wide (gate nine) and I didn’t think there was much pace in the race, so I was worried. But he showed he’s a good horse. He was three-wide all the way. It was impressive. I expected him to run a good race, but I wasn’t confident,” So said. “Those horses (Hong Lok Golf and The Boom Box) when I bought them, I expected them to be good horses – especially this one. It seems like I’ve got a couple of good ones.” Horse racing news View the full article -
