He's built some resume, with G1s in Germany, US, Dubai and now a first Godolphin winner HKJC Racing since Mastery won the 2010 Vase. Kinda looked like the clockwise version of the Sheema Classic. They'll hope for better luck here over the summer than they had last year.

First Seoul, then Tokyo and wrapping the o'nite shift with HKJC Racing. RR is nice, really I'm just trying to get a glimpse of Evers.

I didn’t know Grayson Murray personally. And am saddened by the tragic news of his passing like everyone. But I want to share a story only a few people knew about.

About eight years ago before Grayson ever won a pro event he bought someone on twitter a brand new car. I know this

Just when you thought Galileo couldn't accomplish anything more. On the same day that he sires a new TDN Rising Star, he also accounts for one as a broodmare sire in the form of Prides Crossing

REBEL’S ROMANCE to reign supreme? 💙

Godolphin’s four-time G1 winner across three continents takes on Hong Kong's stars in the £1.3m Champions & Chater Cup this Sunday.
