Stable changes are a fact of life in Hong Kong. For varying reasons, owners elect to move their horse from one yard to another in search of greener pastures.
Sometimes owners don't have a choice. Top-level trainers may advise them to move their horse on because they no longer have room for it, believing it may have reached its mark in the handicap.
While stable transfers are a common part of Hong Kong racing there will be more than 200 of them by season's end they are hard to ignore.
