The Stewards have this morning been advised by Trainer Caspar Fownes that FAIR TRADE has not been entered for the Citibank Hong Kong Gold Cup (HK Group 1). As such, Jockey Dye has been advised that as FAIR TRADE will not take its place in the scheduled race he is no longer eligible to accept race riding engagements at the Sha Tin race meeting to be conducted on Sunday, 28 February 2010.

Jockey Prebble has advised that he holds a commitment to ride DAO DAO in the Champions Mile (International Group 1) on Sunday, 25 April 2010 should it be invited to run at the event and then subsequently travel to Hong Kong.
