Meet Hong Kong racehorse owner Arthur Antonio da Silva, a man who has been a member of the Hong Kong Jockey Club for almost half a century. This is his take on lessons he has learnt as an owner, his love of racing and his thoughts on the future of Hong Kong’s Thoroughbred industry. GALLOPMAGAZINE 49 rthur Antonio da Silva, also known as Archie, is a familiar face not only to Hong Kong racegoers, but to many general citizens of Hong Kong as well. In 2003, when Hong Kong was deeply troubled by the SARS epidemic, Archie’s racehorse Silent Witness brought light and glory to the city with his his- torical 17 race winning streak. The gelding gave citizens more hopeA and courage than perhaps any of the government’s own campaigns. “I was very, very happy and over the moon that my dreams had come true,” says Archie. “It’s hard to explain the really special feelings I had when Silent Witness won for the 17th time in a row, but it was one of the highlights of my life.” Many can still recall Archie, screaming, cheering and crying for Silent Witness at every single race, often oblivious to the TV cameras and photographers around him capturing all of his emotions. Archie’s ancestors were originally from Portugal, but moved to Macau in 1690.
