Favourite HKIR Images

I’m just going to post a few personal favourites from the week and what I might like about them. In no particular order…

Happy Valley, best place there is to go racing. No where else like it.

nuovo-record-sha-tin-8-12-2016_-8

Good morning Nuovo Record.

A Shin Hikari can be difficult to catch. His mind wanders off the job, he is lean and has some weird angles about him. But he put in some good work on this morning.

neorealism-sha-tin-9-12-2016_-55

Neorealism – what a stunning looking animal.

satono-crown_maurice-sha-tin-8-12-2016_-63

Satono Crown galloped really well with stable mate Maurice during the week. Need to give myself an uppercut for not following through and having a bet on him after that.

takedown-sha-tin-8-12-2016_-30

Takedown – the gentle giant. Can run though.

Highland Reel is the ultimate global racehorse. Has run in six countries this year and has improved.

Outrider on the way to work at Happy Valley.

Love the contented look on Prebble’s face as he works lucky Bubbles

Of course this wasn’t going to be complete without the obligatory Maurice pictures.
