THE herpes virus continues to limit the number of horses seen out at trackwork each morning, but there were still some interesting gallops at Sha Tin yesterday.
Saturdays are generally a lot less busy than other days, with only the likes of John Moore and Lawrie Fownes getting stuck into their strings.
Yesterday, Fownes' last-start Class Five and Six winner, Add Some, went every bit as well as the much higher-rated All Thrills.
Add Some generally works well, but even by his own standards this was a good piece.
Fownes' En Rapport didn't have the best of luck last time when a close third to Orlando Magic.
He appears to have come out of that race in good order, and yesterday impressed as he moved sweetly alongside the stable's last-start winner, Crown Commander.
Fownes also had some youngsters on display, including Taurus, who caught the eye. He is one to follow in trackwork trial reports.
