Cody Mo's stable is on fire, racking up a staggering 16 wins over the past two months! The Hong Kong-based trainer has catapulted himself to seventh place in the trainers' championship table with an impressive 46 victories. And it's not just the numbers that are telling the story – the quality of his horses is undeniable. Six winners in the last 10 days alone speak volumes about Mo's ability to get the best out of his team.
Mo will field a potent nine-strong squad at Sha Tin, and among them lies two genuine contenders for success. First up is Honorary, the four-year-old set to take on the seven-furlong Continuous Development Handicap (12:40 pm UK time). This colt has already demonstrated its mettle last month by outpacing the competition over the same course and distance, with the runner-up going on to seal a win of its own. With a favourable inside gate and that impressive form fresh in the memory, it's no surprise Honorary is tipped to take an early lead and prove a thorny challenge for rivals.
Ahead of Mo's big guns, Storm Mirror has been generating plenty of buzz ahead of his outing in the six-furlong Serving The Community Handicap (11:35 am UK time). After two close-but-no-cigar performances, this Deep Field progeny is set to relish the step up in distance, offering more room to breathe and express its potential. With Zac Purton, the seasoned pro, back in the saddle, Storm Mirror's supporters are pinning their hopes on a breakthrough victory.
Mo's masterful handling of his stable, particularly with these two contenders, only serves as testament to the trainer's current purple patch – and it's clear he knows exactly which strings to pull to get the best out of his team at Sha Tin.
