Fresh from a stunning four-timer at Happy Valley, Caspar Fownes is confident Dancing Code can help continue his early momentum when the consistent sprinter tackles Sunday’s Class Two Yi Tung Shan Handicap (1,200m) at Sha Tin.
Fownes is dreaming of adding to his four championship wins after soaring to the top of the leaderboard on six wins thanks to his quartet of winners on Wednesday night.
Armed with six runners this weekend, the 58-year-old has high expectations for Dancing Code’s return from a campaign that featured two wins and four placings.
“He remains in good form. He had a lovely trial in Conghua last week down the straight and he’s got a pretty good record at the 1,200m at Sha Tin, so we’re looking forward to the race,” Fownes said of the four-time course and distance winner.
