His name is Down Town although he had originally been Hantu.

He came to Hong Kong in 2005 (trained by Dennis Yip) and worked his way up to Class 1... in his first G1 he was 4th (Cathay Pacific Hong Kong Sprint which Absolute Champion had won. The legend Silent Witness was 2nd and Benbaun 3rd. He beat some extraordinary horses such as She Is Tosho, star from Japan, home).
This is his finest moment... (from October of 2007)
I think racing fans who don't follow Hong Kong know a lot of these names.
