Frankie Lor Fu-chuen hopes he will be raising a glass to Bottomuptogether after putting his red-hot speedster’s unbeaten record on the line at Sha Tin on Saturday.

Yet to get off the mark from 34 attempts this term, Lor heads to Sha Tin with a solid team of five runners headlined by the exciting youngster in the Class Three Yan Chai Trophy (1,200m).

Bottomuptogether has been a sensation in his three starts to date, taking all before him with ease, but Lor wants to see if he can settle when he carries top weight under Zac Purton.

While the son of Shamus Award showed electric early speed over sprint distances last term, Lor admits the lure of a Classic Mile tilt is still at the forefront of his mind.

“The main goal for Saturday is that I hope he can relax a bit more in the race to see if he can handle a bit further,” Lor said. “I hope he can [go for the Classic Mile], but I’m not sure.

“He’s trialled two times and the jockeys have come back and said he’s a little bit keen. Hopefully he can run a really good race and then improve more after.”

A full-brother to stablemate Beauty Live – who has five wins to his name over 1,400m and 1,600m – Bottomuptogether carried his promising trial performances into his debut on May 5, producing a classy one-and-a-half-length victory over the minimum trip.

He collected his second win three weeks later, defying a wide berth for another easy straight-course success.

The youngster relished a step up to Class Three level on his final outing of the season, dismantling a solid field by two and three-quarter lengths.

Bottomuptogether squares off with David Hayes’ improving five-year-old Rubylot on Saturday and will jump from barrier eight under top weight of 135 pounds.

“He needs to carry a big weight but I think that will be OK,” Lor said.

“Mentally he has done well over the summer, but his weight is not much different really. He has won carrying a big weight before, so I hope he can run a good race.”

Lor also saddles a strong winning chance in the Class Three Tsuen Lok Handicap (1,600m), with Voyage Samurai searching for a fourth career win at start six.

“He’s a good-looking horse and he’s actually quite special for me,” Lor said. “He’s had five starts, three wins and two seconds. He’s not that sharp but he’s very consistent and he always tries hard.”

While the known front runner will have to overcome gate 11 in the 12-horse contest, Voyage Samurai defied stall 14 to go from pillar to post in May, where he got the better of Classic Series candidates Stunning Peach and Helene Warrior.

“He’s trialled twice already and his form is coming back nicely,” Lor said. “He can lead by himself of course, but he can also sit second or near the front.

“I think [Frantanck] may try to lead, so if he can sit second or near the front that’s OK. It depends how he jumps, but we’ll see.”

Lor’s weekend team is completed by My Flying Angel, Everyone’s Classic and Super Goldi.
