Another victory in Japan for Hong Kong!
It's been a long time since Aerovelocity won the Takamatsunomiya Kinen!
Romantic Warrior, you are the true champion!
Romantic Warrior is a great champion and he proved it today. He is courageous and tough. He beat the best Japan has to offer and I think he is one of HK's greats besides Golden Sixty.

Massive congratulations to Hong Kong fans from Japan! We were very happy to witness the quality of brave warrior.
Wasn't A Surprise!! Romantic Warrior Took The Yasuda Kinen IN STYLE!! What A Race And What A Horse! Congratulations!!❤😊
Quality at play as it dropped back to 2 furlongs and still won.
He's won G1s in HK, Australia and Japan. A truly great horse.
What a horse. What a jockey!!! RW is an absolute champion!!
Best horse since Winx.
That has to be the WORST race call! However what an awesome horse, just can’t do anything wrong.
What a horse, a beast, a legend!
Still remember back to 1998 with the emerge of Indigenous, Oriental express and Fairy king Prawn etc, almost no one believed in me HK trained horses were reaching G1 level. This warrior I can say is the best in terms of versatality and bulletproof. His strength is always with right attitude for superb gate speed to be put in a good position.
Very British/irish bred horse doing good over seas.
Romantic Warrior, Hong Kong Horse of the Year ！👏👏👏
