Apprentice Lim steals show with treble

KUALA LUMPUR: Nov 8, 2014

A winner on this track just four weeks ago, SHIMBASHI got the home-based novelty meeting here to a shock start when he beat the favourite SPEEDY BOLT by a neck to pay RM104 for a win.

It proved to the start of a splendid afternoon for apprentice Lim Shung Uai who went on to land two more winners, LIBERATION SPIRIT and PLENTY IN HAND, notching his first treble of his career.

SHIMBASHI, who cost just NZ$7,000 as a yearling, has been a pretty useful sort with now six wins from 63 starts.

For nine-year-old LIBERATION SPIRIT, a winner at Newmarket before coming to Malaysia, it was his fifth win in 58 outings.

PLENTY IN HAND has now won three races for trainer PS Kumaran after failing to find success under three other trainers.
