Following on from their Karaka sales success, WS struck in Hong Kong last night when Circuit Fortune opened his account.

Trained by Manfred Man, the three-year-old was returning from a seven month break and got the job done with the benefit of two recent trials. He was an $85,000 purchase for the Hong Kong Jockey Club in 2012 and is out of Danasinga mare Saucy.

A sister to the dual Group Two winner Ugachaka, she has now produced three winners. WS sold Circuit Breaker’s brother to John Hawkes for $50,000 during the Premier session at Karaka last week.
