Chadwick feeling the pressure with Pakistan Star ride in the balance

Matthew Chadwick is a jockey under extreme pressure. He is, currently, the proud rider of tailed-off-out-of-camerashot to winning-by-clear-water internet sensation Pakistan Star, who runs on the undercard on Sunday but is in danger of stealing the limelight.

Chadwick's problem is that the Hong Kong racing scene is the modern-day colosseum and after defeats on his last two starts the crowd are baying for his blood.

"This Sunday is do or die for me, I feel. I have to win or I fear I'll lose the ride," he says frankly.
