Hong Kong racing @HKJC_Racing does ceremonies - whether for horse retirements, milestone awards, or big race trophy presentations - so professionally and so well.
I hope lots of 🥕🥕🥕🥕carrots on hand for Romantic Warrior 🌟🐴
Luke Nolen will likely ride Sheza Alibi next preparation..
Text from owner Fred Noffke this AM :
“We will be the same team next year,
With more experience.”
🚨Lucy Fiore will retain the ride on KING OF LIGHT for the remainder of the prep.
That means William Pike loses the option of jumping back aboard the star. 👀

A look back at last week’s Melbourne Cup Parade! 🏆
A wonderful day celebrating our Melbourne Cup legends with so many racing fans and supporters.
A big thank you to everyone who came along and made the day so special. We truly appreciate your continued support!

And just like that, another Melbourne Cup Carnival is in the books! 🏆
What better way to wrap up an incredible week at Flemington than with three very special faces — Santa Ana Lane, Apache Cat, and of course, Patch’s little mini-me, The Kitten (Dougee)! 🐎
Champions Stakes Day was full of special moments, with Santa Ana Lane enjoying a lovely reunion with his owners, and a little full-circle moment for us too!
One year ago, we first met tiny Dougee, who would go on to become patch’s little brother. Fast-forward 12 months, and here he is, proudly following in his footsteps and stealing hearts at Flemington!
A HUGE thank you to the @flemingtonvrc for their incredible support throughout another successful Melbourne Cup Carnival. We are so grateful for the opportunity to bring our beloved Legends back to the track where so much racing history has been made.
For us, these appearances are about so much more than a day at the races. They’re an opportunity to connect with racegoers, share the stories of our legends, and most importantly, showcase the fulfilling lives these incredible Thoroughbreds can enjoy long after their racing careers have ended.
Their racing days may be behind them, but their time to shine is far from over. 💚
To our staff at the farm, incredible volunteers, handlers and everyone working behind the scenes to make these appearances possible — thank you! And to every racegoer who stopped for a pat, a photo or a chat, thank you for helping us celebrate these magnificent horses and their life after racing.
Another Carnival done and dusted, and another reminder of why we love what we do.
