It may have been breaking a prize money drought for the 4yo gelding by Lil's Boy ex Alisco and local owners Mr & Mrs Hui Yip Wing but today's win in the Class 3 Porto Handicap (1650 Metres) on the all weather track at Shatin also gave Australian jockey Corey Brown (who won the Sydney jockeys' premiership in 2002-03), who is in Hong Kong on a three-month contract following the Sydney Autumn carnival, his first taste of victory this season in Hong Kong.

A gelding prone to over racing, Sing Fay Fay was suited by barrier 2 and the pace of today's race, and ridden hard in the straight by Brown, managed to work past Fortune Boy by 3/4 of a length with Magic Temple 2 and 1/2 lengths back in third.

It was Brown's 37th ride of the season.

Brown is no stranger to Hong Kong. In 2000 he rode about 20 winners, and last year he attended Hong Kong's international race meeting in December.
