Undefeated Love Only You makes her first start since May 19 when she faces 17 rivals Sunday at Kyoto Racecourse in the Group 1 Queen Elizabeth Stakes.
Champions Way, who won six of seven starts during the 2018-2019 racing season, his first in Hong Kong, tops the Class 1 Panasonic Cup Handicap, the featured race Saturday at Sha Tin as the Hong Kong venue departs from its typical Sunday afternoon programming.
Champions Way is one of five John Size-trained entrants in this 1,400-meter handicap. He sits atop the race ratings at 108, a massive jump from the mark of 52 at which he began last Hong Kong season, and all Size’s starters rate among the top eight in a field of 13.
