The rider was, as ever, level-headed in victory – landmark or not – as he rounded out the card with a hat-trick in the night’s final three contests. “I’m definitely pleased to reach the 300 but I didn’t really count the numbers, I just knew when people told me I was almost there,” Ho Massive Pocket HKJC said. “Massive Pocket ran well from that gate (12) learn and develop.
