Ethan Brown will be hoping to continue the momentum of a superb treble when he picks up Group Three rides aboard Patch Of Theta and Chancheng Glory at Sha Tin on Sunday.
The 26-year-old could scarcely believe his luck last Saturday at Sha Tin when Country Dancer, Prestige Hall and Endued all roared home in front to give him the biggest day of his stint so far.
The trio of wins doubled his Hong Kong tally, with a pair of them coming for John Size and another for David Hall – two trainers who have thrown plenty of support his way since he arrived.
Riding trebles in the city is something that even the seasoned riders here aspire to and for Brown, it was such a fanciful idea that he did not even have it listed as a goal.
“It’s hard to ride trebles in country Victoria, let alone here, so it’s something I’ll never forget,” Brown said. “It meant a lot to me to ride two winners for John Size. All I wanted to do was ride a winner for him – even just having a ride for him is big.
