  Strong N Powerful proves just that in Ipoh

IPOH:  Apr 22, 2023

 

A step-up in class proved no problem for former Singapore galloper STRONG N POWERFUL when he beat some well-credentialled runners in the Enrich Stakes A event over 1200m here today.

The Australian gelding came over to Malaysia in the middle of last year after scoring four wins at Kranji, including a hattrick in late 2019 and early 2020.

After three runs under trainer Ooi Chin Chin for a second and a fourth, the six-year-old by Golden Archer was transferred to V Sivan who has now saddled him three times.

Six days ago, STRONG N POWERFUL finished second to runaway winner PERFECT (by 6 1/4 lengths) in a Class 3 - 14000m handicap at Sungei Besi but Sivan made a bold love by entering his again today.

STRONG N POWERFUL was up against the likes of GRAND CROSS (19 wins) and RELAU STAR (11 wins) in this set-weight event. But he proved more than a match for them.

GRAND CROSS, as usual, took up the role of pacemaker but STRONG N POWERFUL, ridden by Khaw Choon Kit, tracked him all the way from the start, just a length away.

The task of carrying 60.5kg on his back soon told on the leader. He was unable to respond when STRONG N POWERFUL collared him and raced past at the 300m. STRONG N POWERFUL went on to win by 1 1/4 lengths despite drifting out in the final 200m.
