| CHIEF SECRETARY snatching a
thrilling win - SNTC photo |
|
|
|
After finding one to beat six times in seven
races, Joao Moreira finally found better fortunes in the final two races at
Kranji this evening to land a well deserved double, and inched closer to the
magical 200 mark.
And the Brazilian
jockey had to work hard for his breakthrough win on CHIEF SECRETARY (Johar -
Anakela Bay by Fairy King) in the Class 4 - 1900m handicap.
The New Zealand gelding, who started
favourite, had to come from a long way back in the early running to snatch
victory by a neck for his fourth success in 43 starts.
Moreira then had a much easier time on MR
MANI (Lonhro - Virago by Danehill) who coasted home by one and three quarter
lengths in the Class 3 - 1200m sprint.
It was the third win in six starts for the
Australian four-year-old but his first partnership with Moreira.
