Bidding to end the season on a high after a frustrating run of seconds, James Orman has identified Supreme Agility as the pick of his eight-strong book of rides at Happy Valley on Wednesday night.
Joining the ultra-competitive Hong Kong riding ranks in February on a six-week contract, the Australian jockey made an instant impression with two early winners, helping him earn a licence extension through to the end of the season.
The 27-year-old hopes to continue riding in the city next season, but his fate is yet to be determined after delays to the Licencing Committee’s announcement for the 2025-26 campaign.
While he has managed to boot home eight winners, a streak of recent placings has left Orman frustrated.
