Saimee returns to Malaysia with a double

KUALA LUMPUR:  Mar 17, 2012

Former champion jockey Saimee Jumaat, who has won titles on both sides of the causeway, returned to riding in Malaysia in style at Sungesi Besi there today.

Making his first appearance on Malaysian soil since August 2009, Saimee was an instant hit when he scored on his first ride on BUENA VISTA (Tayasu Tsuyoshi - Minstrel Show by Euclase).

It was only the second win in 15 starts for the Australian gelding who cost just A$8,000 as a yearling.

Saimee then teamed up with trainer Johnny Lim five races later to win again on POWER OF KHAN (General Nediym - Flurry's Gem by Perugino) who completed a hat-trick and has now three wins and three placings in six starts in Malaysia.

Saimee finished the day with two wins, a second and a third from six rides.
