The world’s best sprinter Ka Ying Rising achieved his 20th straight victory in the Group 1 Chairman’s Sprint Prize (1200m) on Sunday.

Now, with over $27 million in prize money accumulated and nine Group 1s next to his name, the David Hayes-trained five-year-old presents as nearly impossible to defeat.

The gelding’s regular jockey Zac Purton attributed that greatness to the star sprinter’s versatility.

“His versatility (is elite), he can do whatever you want him to do,” Purton told SENTrack & RSN’s Giddy Up.

“He leads, can sit outside the leader, can take a sit, he can come back to midfield. Whatever you want to him to do, he will do it.

“He adapts very quickly and very well. He gets himself into a beautiful rhythm once you give him a signal.

“Most horses when they gallop, you can feel them hitting the ground. This horse just seems to glide across the ground like he's running on air.

“It's an unbelievable feeling and gives you goosebumps when you're riding him and when I talk and think about it.

“The action that he's got is quite incredible.”

However, the hoop admitted that Ka Ying Rising has a lone chink in his armour.

“Obviously he's better on a fast speed, that's when we really see the best of him, when they're rolling along mid-race, and he can get into that beautiful rhythm that he's got,” Purton revealed.

“When they go too slow for him, he gets a little bit tight and on his tippy toes, and he just wants to do a fraction too much in the run.

“So that's the only thing, and that's a little bit of what happened in The Everest when he was down there last season.

“They just didn't quite go fast enough for him in-race, and he was just up on the heels a little bit.

“But when he gets that tempo to suit, he's just a beautiful horse to ride.”
