Ka Ying Rising

Shamexpress × Missy Moo

New Zealand-bred Ka Ying Rising was bred by Grandmoral Lodge Racing and developed into an elite Hong Kong sprinter under David Hayes and Zac Purton. His 2025 Everest victory demonstrated that his Sha Tin dominance could travel to Randwick. On 6 September 2026 he clocked a course-record 1:06.11 over 1,200 metres in the Chief Executive’s Cup. His record combines early speed with the ability to accelerate in the straight. Previous success at Randwick supports his candidacy through direct course experience, although each edition presents its own conditions.

Lineage

Shamexpress

Shamexpress won the Group 1 Newmarket Handicap over 1,200 metres at Flemington. Producing Ka Ying Rising establishes an elite international sprinting contribution, without making the sire’s record a guarantee of the offspring’s result.

Missy Moo

Missy Moo, a daughter of Per Incanto, won five races from 1,200 to 2,050 metres. She received the 2024/25 Eight Carat Broodmare of the Year award and produced Ka Ying Rising. Her family’s value rests on documented racing and production achievements, rather than an assumed genetic mechanism.
