Opie Bosson returned to winning form with a vengeance at Kranji tonight when he booted three winners to share the spotlight with champion jockey Joao Moreira.

Bosson began his current Singapore stint with a 'bang' on the opening day of the season when he captured the New Year Cup with FLYING FULTON and completed a double on RED BEARD.

But the Kiwi, sponsored by compatriots Mark Walker and Bruce Marsh, had to wait until the opening race tonight to greet the judge again on CALIFORNIAN STAR (California Dane - Snipped In The Bud by Snippets) who started odds-on after finishing second in his debut earlier this month.

Bosson went on to win on another favourite, debutant CALIFORNIAN GIRL (Danerich - Tribal Dancer by Brave Warrior) who had raced twice in Australia for a third.

Bosson wound up the evening when he combined with Marsh to register their third winner of the evening on PALOMBARO (Rusty Spur - On Leave by Centro).

Moreira continued his hot streak with a treble as well to lead the table with 20 wins, 10 ahead of Danny Beasley.
