Caspar Fownes is confident Sky Darci is on target for a stellar BMW Hong Kong Derby (2000m) performance after the gelding breezed through a vital 1200m barrier trial on the dirt at Sha Tin on Friday morning (12 March) ahead of next week’s Classic.
The top-rated entry for the HK$24 million contest on Sunday 21 March, Sky Darci was allowed to balance up before streaming to the line impressively for Joao Moreira behind David Hayes’ talented Packing Award and Goldie Flanker this morning.
