Birthday: Sep 30, 1960
Nationality: Hong Kong
Background:
Age: 63. Me Tsui graduated from The Hong Kong Jockey Club's Apprentice Jockeys' School and rode as a jockey between 1980 and 1986, partnering 21 winners in total. After working his way through the ranks as assistant trainer, lastly for Francis Lui, Tsui was granted his full trainer's licence in 2005 and rapidly established himself as a force in the training ranks. He enjoyed his best season in 2007/08 with 51 victories, which put him third in the trainers' championship. The trainer's slightly unusual forename is an abbreviation of his nickname 'Amigo', which was considered too much of a mouthful at Jockeys' School and so shortened to 'Me' - which has stuck ever since. Tsui's Fight Hero finished a narrow second in the 2018 KOR G1 Korea Sprint at Seoul. He reached 600 Hong Kong wins when Star Of Wuyi won at Happy Valley in 2022.
Notable Race Wins Include
HKG3 Bauhinia Sprint Trophy (2014 Divine Ten).
Hong Kong Career Wins
(at start of 2024/25 season): 624 (win strike rate: 6.5%).
