Class Act continues winning show

IPOH,  10 Jan 2010

CLASS ACT continued her splendid run of form to capture the Da Ma Cai Stakes for Class 4 horses over 2000m here today.

After just a win each in 2007 and 2008, the New Zealand mare has struck a purple patch from the end of October to reel off four consecutive wins, three of them over today's distance.

Ridden again by Cheng Han Kok, CLASS ACT (Brocco - Classy Polly by Sky Classic) won comfortably by 1 1/4 lengths for her sixth win in 31 starts.

Meanwhile, champion trainer Johnny Lim finally saddled his first winner of the season when CAPTAIN DE LAGO (Encosta De Lago - Clifton Gardends by Mighty Kingdom) broke through for his maiden win in four starts.

Lim completed a double when FAST'S TIP (Brahms - Tipped by Cox's Ridge) returned to form to win the last event of the day. It was the American gelding's fourth win in 14 starts.
