I saw in one of the articles, he is going to Australia first, then will live at Northern Farm in Japan.

The retirement ceremony for Hong Kong champion Golden Sixty held at Sha Tin last night.

The video is in chinese and is only highlights as he walked around for several minutes, nearly taking out several of his grooms on the way. (He has never been a easy horse)
