My Promise shows potential in debut win

IPOH,  19 July 2008

MY PROMISE made a sensational debut in the RM60,000 National Stud Farm Sprint Vase over 1100m on the straight course here today.

A RM62,000 purchase at the National Premier Sale (NPS) in 2005, the Malaysian gelding by Becquerel out of the Straight Strike mare Straighest defeated the 10-time winner DAYLIGHT AHEAD and a host of other well-performed runners in the race confined to graduates of NPS.

MY PROMISE, a full-brother to YES I CAN AND half-brother to STRAIGHT SUCCESS, KEEP RISING and SUMMER DAWN, paid RM222 for a win.

POWER OF CITY (Prince Ferdinand - Barcombe Milss by Guns Of Navarone) ended a three-and-a-half year drought when he easily won a Class 5 - 1200m sprint.

The veteran galloper, who began his campaign in 2001, had six previous win but his last success was achieved in December 2004. It was only two months ago that he resuming racing after a nine-month spell.
