Both good chances in the Big One imo

Didn't do him any harm RJ

Weren't disgraced (4th & 5th)

Sandown Cup shortly. Interesting to see what Melbourne Cup starters back-up. If any.

None.

Oz jockeys Tommy Berry,,Glen Boss,,Craig Newitt & Dean Yendall have been granted a one-day Club’s Licence to ride at the Singapore Gold Cup meeting tomorrow
NZ trainer Laurie Laxon has 3 runners in the Cup,,Dujardin,,Orakei Korako & NZ-bred stayer Martin

Another shot next year, perhaps?

Autumn campaign down-under & then another go at the Cup, according to Paul Moroney. Bit under $1.5 million still to recoup!

Dunaden a good 5th in yesterdays Japan Cup

Must admit not a Dettori fan but Frankie is back,,made a successful comeback from injury with a double at his first meeting back at Lingfield

Zac 57 wins, Whyte 37 wins, big mover Joao Moreira into 2nd position with 48 wins, as at 08/02/2014

Boy, it has been a big move by Joao Moreira!

Connections of import Fiorente are considering a return to England in June
Royal Ascot G1s Prince of Wales Stakes or Ascot Gold Cup could be on Fiorente agenda

Zac 63 wins, Moreira 55 wins, Whyte 42 wins, as at 01/03/2014

2013 Stradbroke Handicap winner Linton looks set to make his debut for UK based trained Marco Botti this Saturday at Meydan in Dubai
2013 Mackinnon Stakes winner Side Glance has also been nominated for this meeting

So what's the oil Joao Moreira, can't say I've heard of him prior to this thread !?

Sounds like Gai is really keen on this idea

South American hoop. Rode 8 winners from 8 rides (9 event card) in Singapore last year, so must have above average ability.

Originally from Brazil I think. Might even do a stint down under in a season or two.

A treble to Moreira today so far, still 4 races to go!

Thought his ride on hotpot Super Abundante a bit ordinary

Wish I was on the winner of that race. Master Aetius, $50+ W $10+ P!

Zac's back! Rosehill today.

Watched him riding at Meydan on the weekend
Like his style!

Joao Moreira has gained a release from the Hong Kong Jockey Club to ride in Sydney next weekend

5 rides, didn't get amongst it

Just the 2 rides today, won the Doncaster Mile on Sacred Falls

Wonder if Joao will be around for next weekend's Sydney carnival

Doesn't look like it

Hong Kong Update
 

Zac 82 wins, Moreira 73 wins, Whyte 64 wins, as at 21/04/2014

Whyte won the war today
& a double to Tommy Berry
great start to his Hong Kong campaign
