Last year when the HKJC arranged for supporters to fly out to some of the international races, they'd all wear red on race day.

Tried to find shots of the HK crowd during last years running but alas..... I have a little bit of a life and so must give up now. :D

They are all close to favorites but...

INVASOR - why this horse still doesn't have the fan base of Rockport Harbor is one of life's greatest mysteries.

Asiatic Boy & Folk...would LOVE this exacta, either way, Eu Tambien in 3rd would be icing on the cake

They are weeping in Hong Kong.....

Not the people. That'll be when they parade VOR at Sha Tin.

The horses.

Someone called the Japanese pair Raiders. :eek:

Do these people not realize that is a term reserved for HK? :p

HOORAY FOR HONG KONG!

A temporary extension was permitted for the "raider" term to include all asians. Slight breach of protocol I know, but everyone's excited so you can't blame them.

Dear Bullish Luck.....

Are you tired? Me too!:D

I'm SO proud of you! Told you the dirt was nothing to be afraid of.

An absolutely thrilling day for the 'sentimental vote'! :) The two girls were a bit of a disappointment, but looked to have come home safe at least. Awful break for National Colour.
