ROMANTIC WARRIOR stormed to victory in the $6.5 million (US) Hong Kong Cup on Saturday at Sha Tin racecourse, the richest race on the Longines Hong Kong International race day.
Ridden by James McDonald, Romantic Warrior (Ire), a son of Acclamation (GB) – Folk Melody (Ire) by Street Cry (Ire) is a 4-year-old who had only lost once coming into the 2000 metre race. Purchased by former jockey Mick Kinane as agent for owner Peter Lau for 300,000 guineas at the 2019 Tattersalls Yearling sale, Romantic Warrior is trained by Danny Shum.
