I didn't think there was a right way and a wrong way to form an opinion, though some can be more informed than others. However, I guess that's jmo. -

James McDonald has been booked to ride Seraph Gabriel in Sunday’s BMW Hong Kong Derby (2,000m) after the superstar jockey chose to hop off Beauty Bolt in favour of David Eustace’s British import. McDonald was aboard Beauty Bolt in the first two legs of the Classic Series, finishing third in the Classic Mile and seventh in the Classic Cup (1,800m), but he was taken by Seraph Gabriel’s close second to Lucky Sam Gor when he rode him on the Classic Mile undercard. The son of Saxon Warrior...View the full article -

The sky seems to be the limit for Frankie Lor Fu-chuen’s Smart Golf after the progressive galloper led from pillar to post in a smart performance to collect the Class Three Kowloon City Handicap (1,200m) at Sha Tin on Sunday. It was the perfect warm-up ahead of a huge week for the Lor stable, with Numbers set to start a huge chance in Sunday’s Hong Kong Derby (2,000m), and this four-year-old could be another to rate highly with more time. Available at $3.5 30 minutes before the off, Smart Golf...View the full article -

In an open Golden Slipper, trainer Bjorn Baker knows Tuesday’s barrier draw will be key to the chances of his two hopefuls. Bjorn Baker’s two Golden Slipper contenders will have different build ups to the $5 million feature, with Paradoxium (Extreme Choice) set to be given a serious hit-out on Tuesday and Warwoven (Sword Of State) a quiet week. Sword Of State colt Warwoven raced his way into the two-year-old showpiece with an emphatic win in Saturday’s Pago Pago Stakes (1200m) and will go into the March 21 race on a seven-day back-up. It wasn’t the route Baker initially hoped to take, but with the colt borderline to gain a start if he didn’t bank more prizemoney, the trainer’s hand was forced. “You never quite know on the back up. It’s always a tricky business,” Baker said. “But he couldn’t have done much more (on Saturday). “It’s good to see him back and win that way. He had to do a fair bit early. Obviously, we will be very interested to see how he recovers and comes through and hopefully he can be there with Paradoxium, in the same (Cunningham family) colours, next week.” While Warwoven will be given every chance to rest and recover, Baker confirmed Paradoxium will wind up his Golden Slipper preparations with a workout on Tuesday morning. “Paradoxium will have a good gallop on Tuesday. He galloped on Thursday, and I was thrilled with him. He has definitely improved,” Baker said. “(Warwoven) will be able to have a very easy week and relax, unlike his trainer and connections.” With Monday the deadline for late entries, the final field for the Golden Slipper (1200m) will be officially declared on Tuesday, followed by the all-important barrier draw. Given no youngster has dominated in the lead-up, this year’s renewal is considered wide open, and Baker says that makes the draw even more crucial. “So important. You can’t worry about it, but it definitely has a big impact,” he said. Rachel King retains the Slipper mount on Warwoven, while Jason Collett sticks with Paradoxium. “And I’d say there’s probably not too much between them on what we’re seeing at the moment,” Baker said.

Promising sprinter Turquoise Velocity’s exciting dead-heat victory helped trainer Francis Lui Kin-wai and jockey Keith Yeung Ming-lun secure a double in tandem at Sha Tin on Sunday. A dramatic finish saw Turquoise Velocity and We Are Hero hit the line locked together in the Class Three Lok Sin Tong Cup (1,000m) in only the second dead heat of the season. Four-year-old Turquoise Velocity stayed on strongly and looked to have the race won until the veteran We Are Hero flashed late to draw level,...View the full article
