Joao Moreira | Racing Post

Japan's Horse Of The Year Maurice (Jpn) (Screen Hero {Jpn}) has recovered from a minor setback that ruled him out of the G1 Dubai Turf next weekend and is now being trained for a tilt at the G1 Champions Mile at Sha Tin May 1. The triple Group 1 winner was last seen in competitive action over the same course and trip when winning the G1 Longines Hong Kong Mile in December under Ryan Moore.
