Santana steals limelight with double

SINGAPORE: Oct 19, 2012

GREAT LIGHT brings up a double for Ivaldo Santana - SNTC photo

On a rare night when Joao Moreira failed to land a winner, another Brazilian, Ivaldo Santana, stole the limelight by booting home a double at Kranji this evening.

Santana, who scored in his only previous ride on THE RUDE WARRIOR (Kempinsky - Soorena by Encosta De Lago) last August, was again successful on the Australian gelding in the Kranji Stakes C - 1900m event. It was the third win in 15 starts for the four-year-old.

Santana then made it count in his first ride on GREAT LIGHT (Pure Prize - Hello Kitty by Quiet American) in the Class 3 - 1200m handicap.

It was the second win by the Argentinean gelding in 10 starts in Singapore, after having won in his only runs in Argentina.
