Dim Sum Prevails in THE CHAIRMAN'S SPRINT PRIZE 2009 [03:17]
Race Meeting: 22/02/2009 Sha Tin RACE 8(413) Hong Kong Group One - 1200 Metres THE CHAIRMAN'S SPRINT PRIZE HK$ 4500000.00 Going : Good Course : Turf - "A+3" Course 1 DIM SUM(H226) J Winks 2 ENTHUSED(H303) D Whyte 3 SACRED KINGDOM(G268) O Doleuze Moore bags a Gr.1 double of contrasts with Viva Pataca, Dim Sum 22 February 2009 John Moore has enjoyed many major victories during his record-breaking career in Hong Kong, but no doubt Sunday's Gr.1 double will always rank highly. The provenance of the leading trainer's latest feature race brace could not have been more contrasting. First he witnessed Viva Pataca win the Citi Hong Kong Gold Cup for the second successive year as an odds-on favourite. A little over half an hour later, Dim Sum, ridden by new Club Jockey James Winks, shocked Sha Tin with a 50/1 upset in the Chairman's Sprint Prize. Moore's double was redolent of another of his finest hours when Viva Pataca won the 2006 Mercedes-Benz Hong Kong Derby and Billet Express - carrying the same pale blue and yellow colours of Dim Sum's owner David Pong Chun-yee - won this same sprint on the same programme. Viva Pataca's second successive victory in the second leg of the Citi Triple Crown did not come in the same facile fashion of a year earlier even if the still admirable Packing Winner never really looked like defeating last season's Champion Middle Distance horse. Darren Beadman pushed out Viva Pataca to score by a neck and record his sixth career Gr.1 success. "He was ...

Horse Racing - MEP Part 12 for OutsideTheWings [00:21]
This MEP part has been a long, long time in the making so apologies for the other members if they've been waiting on me. There are various reasons why I've been lax with my editing lately but I'm gonna have one last spree before I go off to Uni (although I'm sure I'll find the video editing is a great form of procrastination while I'm there)! So this is for OutsideTheWings (formerly CoinOfCourage), who has had a helluva loada trouble with accounts and is well worth checking out, especially if you are a fan of horse racing or would like to witness tributes to the majesty of the racehorse.DISCLAIMER: I do not own nor claim to own any of the audio or video footage used, they belong solely to the rightful copyright holders/ respective owners.
