HIGHLAND Reel was at it again early on Sunday morning: looking vulnerable in a big race (even the commentator said so), then battling back to win decisively, to land the Hong Kong Vase again. It was a fitting end to the racing career of one of the great racehorses.
His has been an incredible racing career. He won 10 times, seven times at the highest level. He won on seven different tracks and in four different countries and on three different continents, and over all distances between seven furlongs and a mile and a half.
