Joao Moreira enjoyed his best meeting of the season yet when he booted home five winners at Kranji here today, capping the afternoon with a perfect three-for-three on the aptly-named BOUNDLESS GLORY.

Moreira started the afternoon winning the first two races on RISKY VENTURE and WAR LORD. Later he wonback-to-back races with SUPER NINETYSEVEN and BRAVO before capping off with BOUNDLESS GLORY.

The Brazilian has now ridden the New Zealand gelding thrice for three wins and the six-year-old has six wins overall from 26 starts.

BOUNDLESS GLORY defeated FOXTROT HOTEL, the mount of Steven King by one length. But King got his revenge in the next race when he denied Moreira a sixth win when successful on RAZIYYA OF SYDNEY.

For trainer Steven Burridge, BOUNDLESS GLORY's win his third of the afternoon after his success with DARIEN GAP and BLACK ICE.

The latter won the main event of the afternoon, the Kranji Stakes A - 1600m event, for his ninth win in 29 starts. A remarkable record when you consider that the gelding has been beset by sesamoid problems.
