David Hill saddles first Singapore winner

SINGAPORE,  16 June 2006

Former Hong Kong based trainer David Hill saddled his first winner in Singapore when FORTUNE WAY coasted to an easy win in the Restricted Maiden - 1000m sprint in the fibresand track at Kranji tonight.

The three-year-old chestnut Australian gelding by Saratoga Springs out of To Love With Love (by Cadeaux Genereux) finished on board in all his four outings in Malaysia before he was transferred to Hill.

The Englishman’s midas touch rubbed off on FORTUNE WAY immediately with his Singapore debut turning out to be a winning one.

BRECKENRIDGE (4 b.nz.g Anziyan - Snowmass by Kaapstad) stepped up to Open class company for the first time tonight and promptly scored an emphatic win over 1000m on the sand.

Sheryl Cheam signalled her return to race riding tonight by scoring on LIGHT OF LIFE (4 b.a.h Rory’s Jester - I’ll Be Back by Caerleon). It was the second of three winners for trainer Charles Leck.
