Ka Ying Rising (Chinese: 嘉應高昇, foaled 3 September 2020), previously named Mr Express, is a champion Thoroughbred racehorse born in New Zealand and trained in Hong Kong. He is the current record holder of the longest winning streak of 18 races, including winning multiple Group 1 races.
He was bred by Fraser Auret in Marton in the Rangitikei district of the Manawatū-Whanganui region of New Zealand's North Island. Auret had trained the dam Missy Moo to win five races. Missy Moo was served by the Windsor Park Stud stallion Shamexpress. He was sold to clients of the trainer David Hayes and exported to Australia on 28 March 2023. After trialing he was sent to Hong Kong to commence his racing career.
