Just two weeks after booting his first treble in Singapore, Australian jockey Vladimir Duric has done it again.

The Caulfield Cup winning jockey was successful on three consecutive rides on MASTER KEY, SECONDTONONE and RYAN JAMES but was unsuccessful in the night's main event, the LION CITY CUP astride last year's winner CAPABLANCA.

Duric started his winning act on MASTER KEY (Key Business - Rushing by Pembroke), the same horse who kick-started his treble on Apr 10.

He quickly followed up with SECONDTONONE (Catbird - Our Grace by Tirol), guiding him to his maiden win in five starts.

Duric then took RYAN JAMES (Thorn Park - Mighty Myrtle by O'Reilly), purchased by trainer Stephen Gray for NZ$52,000 as a yearling, from well off the pace to score first-up in the Initiation - 1200m sprint.

The treble tonight brings his tally to nine from six meetings at Kranji.
