Teetan seeks second IJC crown
The Citizen
|December 04, 2024
Karis Teetan is predicting fierce competition in the 2024 Longines International Jockeys' Championship (IJC) when 12 of the world's best jockeys converge today at Happy Valley after the allocation of rides was completed at Sha Tin.

Teetan, who won the title in 2019, partners Champion Method (58.5kg), Chater Gold (54.5kg), Silo (57.5kg) and Sugar Sugar (61kg) as he chases a second overall win in the HK$1 million competition after victory in 2019. He is one of four previous Longines IJC champions representing Hong Kong, China along with Zac Purton, Vincent Ho and Hugh Bowman this year.
"I thought the one who stands out is Champion Method. He's got a good gate (No 2) and he's been running well - last start was a good win. I think it's going to be a tough competition. It looks like everyone has their fair share of chances," Teetan said.
Champion Method features in the 1st Leg of the IJC for trainer Danny Shum over 1000m as Race 4.
