Exciting sprinter Precision King (Towkay-Quasi Stellar by Catrail) justified his short odds with a strong win in a Class 3 event over 1200m at Sha Tin on Sunday. The 5YO gelding who was recording his third Hong Kong win from his last four starts had to work hard from the start to get to the lead but kicked strongly over the closing stages for leading rider Zac Purton.
Precision King’s latest victory along with Fortune Friends brings up Towkays 19th and 20th individual winner in the last 38 days, an astonishing effort and one which almost belies his 2013 service fee of just $4,500 plus GST
The result of the Group 1 Haunui Farm Classic over 1600m at Otaki on Saturday had a distinct LA flavour. LA are set to offer a full brother to the winner Nashville at next years yearling sales on behalf of his breeder JML Bloodstock, while the second place-getter Xanadu (Elusive City-Forest Dream) was bred by the farm.
New Zealand listed winner Sir Lovesalot (Darci Brahma-Sound Lover by Sound Reason) scored his inaugural win in Singapore on Sunday over 1200m. The LA bred five-year-old was purchased from our 2010 Karaka Premier draft by his owner Dominic Li.
