Hugh Bowman wins Hong Kong G1 on Werther

Sunday 28 May 2017, 7:15pm

A day after winning the Kingsford Smith Cup in Brisbane, Hugh Bowman has claimed another Group One win in Hong Kong.

Bowman rode the John Moore-trained Werther to a dominant victory in Sunday's Champions & Chater Cup (2400m) at Sha Tin, the final Group One race of the Hong Kong season.

Clearly Innocent's win in Saturday's Kingsford Smith Cup at Eagle Farm took Bowman's Group One tally in Australia this season to 12.

He also has won three Group One races in Hong Kong, two on reigning Horse of the Year Werther and one on Lucky Bubbles.

Bowman is the regular rider of Australian champion Winx.
