Melbourne Cup placegetters suited in HK Vase draw..

Racenet - 5/12/2013

Mount Athos and Red Cadeaux will start from barriers six and 11 respectively for their rematch in Sunday’s Group I Hong Kong Vase (2400m) at Sha Tin.

Red Cadeaux, the winner of the 2012 Hong Kong Vase, and Mount Athos started next to each other in the Melbourne Cup before the pair chased home Fiorente in Australia’s greatest race.

Red Cadeaux finished ahead of Mount Athos in the Melbourne Cup while fellow Hong Kong Vase entry Dandino was fifth at Flemington. Dandino will start the Sha Tin race from barrier five.

Dunaden won both the Melbourne Cup and Hong Kong Vase in 2011. The Mikel Delzangles-trained stayer has drawn barrier 12 for his third consecutive start in the Hong Kong Vase.

Below is the barrier draw for the Hong Kong Vase with the draws for the Hong Kong Sprint and Hong Kong Cup following.

Our only equine representative for the day drew well, but losing all that weight on the plane won't help it's chances..

Linton draws well for Hong Kong Mile..

Brad Waters - 5/12/2013

Australian galloper Linton has fared well in the barrier draw for Sunday’s Group I Hong Kong Mile (1600m) at Sha Tin.

No Australian-trained horse has won the Hong Kong Mile with Racing To Win the last to attempt to win the event when 13th in 2009.

The John Sadler-trained Linton has drawn barrier three for the 2013 edition of the race. Sportsbet.com.au has posted the Stradbroke Handicap winner as a $21 chance to win the Hong Kong Mile despite having the services of champion Australian jockey Damien Oliver.

French-trained mare Moonlight Cloud is the $2.30 favourite after she drew barrier six for the rich event while the best of the local hopes Gold-Fun has drawn barrier 10. Sportsbet has Gold-Fun as a $6 second favourite.

Last year’s Hong Kong Mile runner-up Glorious Day will start from barrier 13.

Below is the barrier draw for the Hong Kong Mile, which will be shown on both TVN and Sky Racing at 8:50pm (eastern daylight saving time) on Sunday.

Dandino out of Hong Kong Vase..

Darryl Sherer - 8/12/2013

Injury has forced Dandino and Galileo Rock out of Sunday's Group I Hong Kong Vase (2400m) at Sha Tin.

The Marco Botti-trained Dandino has sustained a soft-tissue injury to his off foreleg while David Wachman's Galileo Rock is suffering with a similar issue in his near foreleg.

The Australian Thoroughbred Bloodstock-owned Dandino ran on well to finish second to Fawkner in the Group I Caulfield Cup before running fifth to Fiorente in the Group I Melbourne Cup at his last start.

Melbourne Cup-winning jockey Damien Oliver ventured to Hong Kong to ride Dandino and linton, who contests the Hong Kong Mile.
