Bright future for Bintang Terang

KUALA LUMPUR: Aug 8, 2010

BINTANG TERANG (late Almoneef), who managed just two wins in 14 outings in Australia, is a star in the making in Malaysia, just as his new name (which means 'bright star') suggests.

Ridden by apprentice Ruzaini Sopien, BINTANG TERANG (Elusive Quality - Nasmah by At Talaq) scored a resounding win in the RM75,000 Shah Alam Trophy (Class 3 - 1400m) at Sungei Besi here today, relegating the heavily-backed GOOD SIGHT to second place.

It was the third win in six starts in Malaysia for BINTANG TERANG, now trained here by Osman Sidek.

After chalking up just one win in nine starts in Singapore, PRINCE GOLDHEART (Desert Prince - Dance A Gallop by Salieri) is also making his own wave in Malaysia.

The six-year-old made it three wins in three starts when he easily won a Class 3 - 1400m sprint.
