Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted September 16 Journalists Share Posted September 16 Ricky Yiu believes emerging talent Sunlight Power (Capitalist) can continue a sharp rise and eventually join the city’s elite after the gelding’s stunning win at Sha Tin on Sunday (15 September) as Zac Purton dominated the meeting with a quartet. Ridden by Jerry Chau, Sunlight Power travelled three-wide before surging clear of his rivals to win by two lengths and easing down before the line to notch his fourth win from 15 starts. The authority of the performance fuelled the wily Yiu’s hopes he has another quality galloper on his hands. Clocking 1m 21.17s to land the Class 3 Yiu Tung Handicap (1400m), 74-rater Sunlight Power will be next aimed at Class 2 contests before Yiu considers even loftier targets after shouldering 129lb with ease today. “I wish I could tell you how good he can be, but I’m aiming high. I think he can get to over 100 (in the ratings) but I can’t tell you how high he can go because he keeps on improving,” Yiu said. Sunlight Power is a graduate of the 2021 New Zealand Bloodstock sale where he was sold from the draft of Kilgravin Lodge for $320,000 to Yiu and Bloodstock agent Dean Hawthorne.
