80 winners. First in the premiership. Last in expected wins. What if Hong Kong's leading jockey is also — by one important measure — its biggest under performer? We ran the numbers.

@HKRacingLuke nearly did -- Worth following him for his analyses of HK Racing. Luke had "#10 Call Me Magnifique showed improvement in a recent trial and may be ready to show something on race day after two no-shows, where he drew wide, settled back and failed to make an impact. The step to 2,000m is key to his chances."

Even Golden Sixty could not go 4-for-4 from debut for trainer Francis Lui, and now Lui attempts it with HOT DELIGHT.

The last time a Lui-trained horse went 4-for-4 from debut was SUNNY POWER under K W Lui back in 2006.

Does anyone have an email for Peter Kizenko?

[SohilRacequant @SohilRacequant]

Mark Newnham trained 5 winners from 9 runners at Happy Valley. In the past 47 years of HKJC racing — 3,551 race meetings — that's only happened 14 times.

He's been in Hong Kong for three seasons.

My buddy @rajeshbijlani6 tipped seven out of seven winners on the Hyderabad card today. Worth following him if you have anything to do with Indian racing.

[SohilRacequant @SohilRacequant]

Two sides of C+3 at Happy Valley. On one night in 2010, draws 1-3 won 7 of 8 races. Last Wednesday, they won 0 of 9. Somewhere in between, the low-draw advantage quietly halved. Here's what 30 years of data looks like.

@HKRacingUS Ordered in June 2024 for HK racing, found data errors, sent screenshots — never heard back. Called today: no past data available, future races PDF only. Has anyone used Ragozin for HK meetings? Surely someone has it in a usable format for past race meetings?

[SohilRacequant @SohilRacequant]

Does anyone use https://t.co/LNdJY4ImLn for Hong Kong races?

[SohilRacequant @SohilRacequant]

LIVEANDLETLIVE update.

Today: whipped twice. Finished 12th. Beaten 7.75 lengths.

[SohilRacequant @SohilRacequant]

Great debate on The Triple Trio about Tony Cruz and the whip.

We ran the numbers. 76,612 runners. 7 seasons.

Cruz's unwhipped horses win at nearly DOUBLE the rate of his whipped ones.

The data may surprise you.

The Triple Trio picked up the article this week. Worth a watch.

@chapeauxx Where is the picture taken from Alan?

@RacingDownWind Do they have anything related to HK racing?

[SohilRacequant @SohilRacequant]

Heads up: HKJC moved their racing data URLs from old .aspx pages to clean REST endpoints. Redirects work today but won't last forever. Time to update your scrapers. A heads up from @HKJC_Racing with details would be nice.

[SohilRacequant @SohilRacequant]

@RacingDownWind What is that device?

[SohilRacequant @SohilRacequant]

Can you recommend a website / vendor (free or paid) that provides a horses's pedigree related data?

[SohilRacequant @SohilRacequant]

@RowleyfileRRR Yes, thanks for the pointer Simon. I was able to find this. Do you know where I can find German, Italian, and French replays?

[SohilRacequant @SohilRacequant]

Which website would you recommend for watching racing replays from Great Britain and Ireland? -- mainly interested in horses that get exported to Hong Kong as PPs.
