What Sha Tin Races
Where Sha Tin Racecourse – Tai Po Rd, Sha Tin District, Hong Kong
When Sunday, February 9, 2025
First Race 12:30pm HKT (3:30pm AEDT)

Visit Dabble


Sha Tin Racecourse is the destination for Hong Kong racing on Sunday afternoon, with a bumper 11-part program set down for decision. The rail is in the C course for the meeting, and with no signs of rainfall on the forecast, racegoers can expect a pristine Good 4 surface throughout the card. All the action is scheduled to get underway at 12:30pm local time.

Best Bet at Sha Tin: La Forza

The Jamie Richards-trained La Forza returns after a 37-week spell and appears primed for a first-up assault. The son of Toronado caught the eye in a recent barrier trial down the Sha Tin straight on January 21, closing on the heels of multiple Group 1 winner Lucky Sweynesse. His only win in three starts came at this course and distance last preparation with Zac Purton in the saddle, and although it’s been a lengthy absence for this relatively unexposed three-year-old, punters can expect La Forza to figure in the finish.

Next Best at Sha Tin: Light Years Charm

Light Years Charm continues to have no luck in his debut Hong Kong season, with the Rubick gelding a good thing licked in his most recent effort at Sha Tin on January 19. The Australian import was held-up with nowhere to go on that occasion, with the four-year-old losing all momentum behind a wall of horses at a critical stage. Zac Purton has the task of overcoming gate 13 this time around, and with a bit more luck transit, Light Years Charm should have no issues justify favouritism with horse racing bookmakers.

Best Value at Sha Tin: Lucky Sam Gor

Lucky Sam Gor has shown good potential heading into his debut assignment, closing off nicely in a recent barrier trial on the Sha Tin all-weather circuit on January 23. He was only asked to make minor inroads in the concluding stages, with Luke Ferraris keeping the son of Press Statement under a strong grip as they cruised through the wire. Kicking off the campaign over 1400m shows intent from the Mark Newnham barn, and provided Lucky Sam Gor can slot in for cover from stall eight, watch for this guy to be flashing home at an each-way price with Picklebet.
