Brazilian hotshot Joao
Moreira bagged the mini feature Causeway Classic Stakes on HAZZA tonight
enroute to claiming his second five-timer of the season at Kranji here
tonight.
Moreira kicked home five
winners on Feb 26 and his superb form has continued throughout the season.
His five winners tonight brought his tally to 90 for the season.
Singapore's riding record,
set by Noel Callow in 2007, is just 16 winners away. And there are 33 more
meetings to go before the season ends.
HAZZA, who won two of his
three starts in New Zealand, has made splendid progress in the last two
months, winning three of his last four outings after being unplaced in his
first four outings in Singapore.
HAZZA (King Of Kings -
Starmandy by Spectacular Love), who started favourite, came from off the
pace early to nail the front-running ESCAMONDA by a neck in a new course
record time of 1 min. 51.3 secs.
