I'm such an idiot. I'm always so touched by this I have to make myself not cry.
(Not kidding).
On Sunday at Sha Tin there's the Russian Pearl Handicap, the Super Kid, for the first time ever the Armada and the Bullish Luck.
I'm always amazed by this and well by all of them but I loved the more unexpected ones.
Okay here we go... the BIG race...
(Absolutely stellar).
