They are billing it as "The Greatest Show on Turf"

Wow, I can't believe how excited I am about this year's Cup Day. Next to the Melbourne Cup this is the one International event I would love to attend live one day but their coverage has always been so great it's like being there. After a very busy few weeks I have nothing else to worry about tonight. Early shower, alarm set in case I fall asleep for a couple of hours - can hardly wait.

I downloaded the program - what a great form chart and souvenir - it takes a while to download but worth it.



Barrier Draw earlier in the week.




Lot's of entertainment through the week at Sha Tin



Trackside breakfast with the Stars early Dec 9 at Sha Tin Racecourse


If you don't need a lot of sleep tonight try to catch some of the Hong Kong Cup action starting about 2 am EST (Dec 9) from the beautiful Sha Tin Racecourse. The big race goes about 4:40 am. The Hong Kong Jockey Club always do a superb job with their Internet coverage and just like every other corner of the globe I think our little Canadian hero will be well represented in the International fields.
