V Nathan starts extended tenure with a win

PENANG,  March 13, 2010

Trainer P. Visuanathan (V Nathan) celebrated a new lease of life when he saddled BAJA KING to victory in a Class 4 - 1100m sprint here today.

The former jockey-turned-trainer was initially issued a licence only till the end of February. During this time, he tasted success once with BAJA KING at the end of January.

His licence was latter extended till the end of the season and he began his extended tenure when BAJA KING (Swiss Yodeler - Rosiano by Rubiano) scored again.

It was the fourth win in 27 starts for the American entire who had two wins in 2008 and was transferred to V Nathan in November last year.

SURE GOOD (Piccolo - Swing And Miss by Celtic Swing), whose jockey was suspended four months for his handling of the gelding when beaten a head in his debut last month, made amends when he scored a runaway win in a Restricted Maiden sprint over 1200m.

SECRET ATTIRE (Secret Savings - Delightful Attire by Cryptoclearance), only recently transferred to Cecil Robert, made a winning start under his new trainer when triumphed in a Class 5 - 1400m sprint. It was his third win but his first since January last year.
