• Lost the third race โ€” should've known Sha Tin exit bends would bite me

    Third race was a straight donation. Sha Tin exit bend is what it is โ€” if you haven't mapped the circuit you're just paying tuition. Lesson learned.

    That horse runs direct lines โ€” won twice at Happy Valley on short straight sprints. Swapping to Sha Tin with its tighter bends was my oversight.
