Vision D'tat...What a coup for HK. This is a very good horse that rarely ships.
I wonder if Christophe Soumillion will ride? |
I wonder...
Maybe Peslier?

Jackpot Delight ran second in the 2008 Mercedes-Benz Hong Kong Derby and last year was invited to contest the CXHK Vase. He won the Sha Tin Mile Trophy, the very final race of last season, by a neck from Cathay Pacific Hong Kong Cup runner, Mr Medici, who on that occasion was in receipt of 11lbs. On Tuesday 1 December, Jackpot Delight displayed his current wellbeing with a positive showing in a barrier trial on the Sha Tin turf. In the same trial, Unique Jewellery, who had been selected for the Cathay Pacific Hong Kong Cup, unfortunately bled from both nostrils and has withdrawn from the Cup. |
Why no Purple Moon?:confused:

Unfortunate comparision of California Flag to Kip under the circumstances. As I am easily confused, are those running lines you have for some of the horses theirs or the ones above them?

Hong Kong does it again... GOOD BA BA! (His 3rd time)! Happy Zero 2nd, Fellowship 3rd, Egyptian Ra 4th!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
California Flag ran a good race. He was turning his head to the left coming down the lane, so perhaps he was a little confused after the right hand turn. Maybe he was looking for a left hand turn and a cross over of the dirt course after making that turn.
|
Yeah he sure did run a good one, :)
* * * Vision D'etat won the Cup... http://www.hkjc.com/english/racing/r...eno=8&venue=ST * * * Very happy for the home team. Cheers to the Sacred Kingdom and Good Ba Ba connections! |
A great night of International racing that was one of my favorite days/nights of racing of the year.
Super result in the Cup, Vision D'Etat is all he is advertised to be and Collection finishing with a respectable 2nd and Presvis 3rd speaks to the depth of this grade 1. I was a little dissapointed in the Aussie horses in the sprint, but reportedly they had excuses. Daryakana was impressive... Good Ba Ba and Sacred Kingdom did the home team proud. Overall a very fun night of racing. |
