  • Race History Record Dividends
    FWD Champions Mile (Group 1) – 1600m – Turf – Right-handed Course Race History The FWD Champions Mile is the only one of Hong Kong’s 12 Group 1 contests to have been established after the turn of the millennium. That first edition came in 2001 and carried a purse of HK$4.6 million. The race was initially a HKG1 contest, designed as a finale for Hong Kong’s star milers, and it was the Brian Kan-trained Red Pepper that scored under Eric Legrix. International runners were first welcomed in 2005 when the prize money rose to HK$8 million. In a classic clash of the titans, Bullish Luck edged his great stablemate Silent Witness. That result ended the latter’s unbeaten streak that had stretched through 17 races. Bullish Luck became the first two-time winner when he followed-up in 2006. The Champions Mile attained international G1 status in 2007 and Able One took the spoils, the first of eight wins for the race’s most successful trainer John Moore. The Moore-trained galloper triumphed again in 2010, by which time the race was worth HK$12 million (increased in 2009). Moore rattled off six more wins with Xtension (2011 & 2012), Dan Excel (2013), the great champion Able Friend (2015) and two-time Horse of the Year Beauty Generation (2018 & 2019). The Caspar Fownes-trained Southern Legend denied Beauty Generation a record three-peat in this race last year, with his rider Vincent Ho also notching a first career G1. The race’s total prize money was increased to the current level of HK$20 million in 2020.

International heavyweights Maurice, Chautauqua, Buffering and Mongolian Saturday will head to Sha Tin Racecourse to challenge Hong Kong’s star milers and crack sprinters in an exciting Group 1 double header. The HK$14 million Champions Mile is ranked in the world’s top 25 races and is an established international feature, while the HK$10 million Chairman’s Sprint Prize, the fourth leg of the Global Sprint Challenge, is a new addition to the elite G1 roster. In the FORM GUIDE, the PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS table provides you with a bird-eye's view of the race. This at-a-glance guide gives you a full form summary of the horses in a simple and concise table. Another handy tool is the INTERNATIONAL RATINGS CHART. In weight-for-age races like the Champions Mile and Chairman’s Sprint Prize, generally speaking, the higher a horse's rating, which is based on racing performance, the better its chance to win. A preliminary SPEED CHART has been included to assist in identifying likely positions in running. Please note that this is preliminary only and the full Speed Map will be available after barrier draw in the SpeedPOWER Form Guide on www.hkjc.com/english/formguide/formguide.asp.
