Just reading about the new racecourse that is opening in Hong Kong at Conghua.  Having been to Hong Kong a few times, one thing that is certain, the Chinese love to bet.  Sha Tin is where they have the main group 1 races during the race season, closely followed by Happy Valley, which is a racecourse surrounded by buildings,  a lot of them high rise offices and residential property.  Having another track will be good for the people and keen betting demands.  A number of jockeys from the UK have gone and taken up contracts with the Hong Kong Jockey Club.  Philip Robinson was champion jockey a few times when he was riding there, he once told me that if he rode 25-30 WINNERS a year in HK , he could earn as much as the Champion Jockey in the UK !  Prize Money is so good there, plus the Chinese are known to be very generous with presents, if they have a winner. Neil Callan is a jockey currently out there, he is doing well and is a very good rider.

A few decent horses running today, Kempton has some nice horses running at the track.  Hopefully I can find a winner there.
