New Zealand champion trainer Lai Chiu-sing came to Hong Kong last season and won 35 championships, 23rd Asia and 20th season. Although his results were slightly lower than that of Wu Pengzhi, who opened a new warehouse in the same period, it was quite satisfactory. In an interview with foreign media earlier, Lai Zhaosheng said that he is satisfied with his results, but there is still room for improvement. Now he has understood the scoring system in Hong Kong and needs to make corresponding arrangements for the coming season. The number of races under his horses will increase.
Lai Zhaosheng told the foreign media: “I think last season was a good start, but after careful reflection, there will always be room for improvement and improvement. Last season, the total number of horses in our shop ran close to 350 races, but facing the scoring system in Hong Kong, we should arrange for our horses to run more. I think the total number of races for our horses is between 400 and 500 races. I believe that the above arrangements in the future will increase our chances of winning horses.”
He went on to explain further: “The stables have a good win rate, and we’re definitely happy about that, but ultimately we have to race more horses, and if you don’t race the horses, they don’t get a penalty, and if they don’t, it keeps their ratings high for a long time. So I think the horses need to be raced more, to find their proper grades, to be more competitive.”
“On the other hand, new horses will continue to arrive in Hong Kong to add troops to the stables. However, the new horses need more time to adapt to the environment. I hope that they will be able to compete in the coming season and continue to perform well in the next season to meet the expectations of the horse owners.” Lai Zhaosheng continued.
Xidefu Yilai voted to join
On the other hand, the former Hong Kong sprint horse king “Fu Yat” joined Lai Chiu-sing’s stable after returning to Hong Kong after his expedition to the UK. The trainer said, “‘Fu Yat’ is one of the best sprint horses in Hong Kong. However, during the expedition to the UK, the situation was not as good as expected, and the result was defeated. I am honored to be able to train a horse of such a level. ‘Fu Yat’ will turn seven years old on the first day of next month. I hope the horse can still maintain good fighting ability, especially in the transfer and subsequent changes in training will help. It improves itself. ‘Fuyi’ has returned to the stable now, we will observe its latest situation in detail, and then make deployment accordingly.”
