2006 Cathay Pacific Hong Kong International Races Morning Works

Hong Kong Sprint contender Meisho Bowler drew the 7 post, after galloping out a quarter-mile in 21.0 seconds on the dirt track. Jockey Yuichi Fukunaga said, "He is sometimes reluctant to work, but he wasn't like that this morning. Everything is set for Sunday and he really is in good form. He is very consistent. I know for Japanese runners, this is the most difficult race to win, but it suits us now that the race is over 1200m around a bend. We have a big chance."
