Racing: Luso goes for Sha Tin double

Clive Brittain's Luso will be out to repeat his 1996 success in the Group Two Hong Kong International Vase, over 12 furlongs, at Sha Tin tomorrow.

Michael Kinane's mount, drawn 12, has looked on very good terms with himself and is expected to run a very big race.

Paul Cole's Posidonas (Richard Quinn) also has claims on his best form in what looks a strong European challenge.

European interests are also represented by the German pair, Protektor (fourth last year) and Oxalagu. Oxalagu has been beaten just once this seasony.

British interests in the Group Two Hong Kong International Cup are Mark Johnston's Bijou D'Inde (Jason Weaver) and Roger Charlton's Wixim (Kinane). Frankie Dettori's mount is Godolphin's Annus Mirabilis.
