WERTHER is going for back-to-back wins in the Audemars Piguet QEII Cup at Sha Tin on Sunday morning and his trainer John Moore was feeling very bullish this week.

After the son of Tavistock had a racecourse gallop at Sha Tin on Thursday morning, Moore said: “I’m very pleased, we’re going in with confidence. Sam (Clipperton) said he was really strong to the line here and very strong through the line. He said the horse wasn’t going to pull-up, he was going on, so that’s very indicative of what the feedback was at this time last year.
