Great day, got out of jail with R10 winner at a decent price. Will have to watch the replays as I overindulged on the free flow, 11am start with a 2am finish!

All good Accie

Beauty Generation vs Winx - who would you have ? BG for me every time

Accie, i see your boy is entered on Saturday ? hot race.

Good luck Accie - hope he comes home safely.

That was superb HK, congratulations

I bet you are!

He looked the winner a long way out HK, his jumping was spot on. Exciting times.

Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year Roz!

Happy New Year - Wetherby Saturday hopefully. There is one entry that makes it very interesting!

Ive not even come close to a winner in HK over the Christmas/New Year period - hoping my luck will change soon . I've pencilled in a couple of horses that i hope will be out again after before the season is out at big prices.


I see your selection didn't break well Accie - seems you are having the same luck as me ....no luck. Any of these ex euro horses that you are keeping an eye on ?


Oh nooo, not him again  - lets hope he crushes him and puts him in his place proper - will he be getting a stone from KR this time ?

sent you a Message Accie

Thanks Roz - replied to you.

5 runner field tomorrow, definitely no 20-1!!

We do think he’ll be better with good ground as long as it’s not fast or hard like Doncaster turned out to be. There aren’t that many races open to him really - trying to keep him LH after Hereford. Today will be another big test for him, so far we can’t really fault him so I’m more interested to see how he does. On the book he’s got a few lbs to find with the top one and Beau Bay but I do believe he will.

I’m very excited about what could be next though!

I had my reservations about the ground before the race and it didn't look like he was enjoying it that much... jumping to his right a bit as well. We could do with some rain!

No worries Dinos - just think he could be one to keep an eye on next week.

Im not one for backing short prices either - feel guilty as i backed the winner Beau Bay at 4s last night.... but i was shouting on Riko -  i just thought he was getting too much weight from them.

I think that race confirmed to me that Riko is a Soft ground horse, he's got a round action and he looked awkward today. He hasn't done a lot wrong over fences and there is surely more to come when he gets softer conditions. The winner had every right to win at the weights but there were doubts about him performing on quicker ground as well.

What's on the radar for Riko HK... Cheltenham Festival, if it's Soft?

Roz - 16-1 early show, seems some others may have the same view as you, drawn 1 too

I can see where you are coming from with his 2yr old form Roz but he hasn't shown enough in Hong Kong for me to get involved... probably bolt up now! Good luck if you have a bet.

Roz - fantastic and paid $36. The inside draw did allow him to sit closer and the finish he showed last up came through. That was more like the trials he had as suspected!

Awesome Roz... it's great when a plan comes together. Even better when you get a big double figure price.

His 2yr old form was very good... odd it took this long to get going in Hong Kong! I knew I would regret not following you. That's the way it's going for me at the moment.

2 G1 races Sunday, mini reruns of HKIR.

Think DB Pin could be the value in the sprint race and an interesting runner in the mile vs BG is Conte who is taking a big step up but he looks the part. Another beast of a horse but I doubt he can outbeast the beast.

Got some derby hopefuls out too but they need to show something not seen so far to replace Dark Dream as my current selection. It’s a shame we don’t have antepost as I had him marked down as my derby winner after his HK debut run on HKIR day.
