Craig Williams is delighted by the progress Dunaden has made since his Melbourne Cup win. He arrived in Hong Kong from Japan (where he has a 6 weeks contract) on Tuesday to ride Dunaden in a key trackwork gallop before the the rich HK Vase on Sunday. Dunaden worked over 1400m, coming home the last 400m in 22.5s and 11.08s for the final 200m. No wonder Craig was smiling after the hitout. He'd love to win the Vase because it's a chance to repay trainer Mikel Delzangles and owner Sheikh Fahad for sticking with him through the suspension appeals process he went through leading up to the Melbourne Cup and which eventually saw him miss out on the Cup ride on Dunaden.
