Looks like they've gone ~30L below standard to the 800m mark of the Makybe Diva Stakes. Mr B has come home 32.66/21.91 secs his last 600m mark. Amazing there was no pressure applied at any stage of the race, he was allowed to coast to the 600m mark and dash home.

The great @GatorGately Gameplan on RSN in the past was excellent. 23-25mins. Succinct, funny, informative. Adding an extra 25 mins of preamble, ads and dribble from the host (yes today’s episode is 48 mins) is unbearable. Great product, ruined 🤮 You deserve better Gator

Sha Tin track looking lush ahead of the first race meeting of the 2025/26 season today. Interesting mix of runners from Everest fav Ka Ying Rising to a handful of debutants. There appears to be a few trainers out to make a statement from the start this season 👀 #HKracing 🐎
