Champion galloper Luen Yat Forever added yet another feature race win to his outstanding record when he raced home to win the Group Two Macau Cup (1500m) this evening.

Macau’s undisputed star galloper, Luen Yat Forever raced off the speed, but came home strongly under regular race rider Manoel Nunes to win in his final run for an Australian campaign.

The win continued a remarkable run in feature races for the Steven Choi prepared gelding.

Last start he won the Star of the Sand Stakes and earlier in his latest preparation he won the Macau triple crown – the Guineas, Derby and Gold Cup.

In winning, Luen Yat Forever confirmed a trip to Melbourne – he will enter quarantine immediately in Macau.

The star galloper will leave for Australia at the end of the month and spend two weeks at the Werribee quarantine centre before debuting in his country of birth.

Connections are planning on running him first up in Melbourne in the Group One Sir Rupert Clark Stakes at Caulfield on September 18.

Luen Yat Forever has not finished further back than second at his past 13 starts.

A son of Honours List, Luen Yat Forever is trained for owner Tony Chan by top horseman Steven Choi.

The gelding is turning into an incredible money maker considering he cost just $32,000 at the 2006 Magic Millions National Weanling Sale.

As it stands he’s earned the equivalent of $848,741 from his 12 wins and nine placings from just 23 starts.

Luen Yat Forever is one of two winners, from two runners, for the Sydney winning Langfuhr mare Loisset.

A winner of four races up to 1400 metres, Loisset hails from the famous Leica family.

Members of that family include the Group One winners Leica Guv, Light Fantastic, Leica Planet, Pharaoh, Leica Show and Leica Lover.
