Spectacular upset by Wai Kor

IPOH: April 17, 2011

WAI KOR (Dante's Fury - Brilliant Princess by Protos) overcame a setback in his career to score the biggest win of the season in a Class 3 - 1400m sprint here today.

Ridden by A Kumarentheran who had ridden the gelding to two wins last year, the six-year-old made all the running to win by two and a quarter lengths in the soft going.

It was the fifth win in 29 outings for WAI KOR who was spelled eight months after beating one home in June last year. He again finished down the field on his return to racing in February.

But a change of trainer after the outing brought a return to form for WAI KOR who paid RM950 for a win today.
