Trainer Danis scores comeback win

PENANG:  Jul 6, 2013

Luke Danis, who resumed training only two weeks ago after serving a three-month suspension, is back in the winner's circle after saddling MILITARY ATTACK to victory in the RM55,000 Korilya Stud Trophy here today.

The Class 4 - 1100m handicap is the first of many sponsored and reciprocal races to be staged by Penang Turf Club during its four-day Sprint Trophy beginning today.

MILITARY ATTACK, who cost just A$3,000 as a yearling, has already won twice in six starts for Danis before taking a break from racing, coinciding with the trainer's time on the sidelines.

Ridden by Noel Callow who is making his first appearance in Penang for sometime, MILITARY ATTACK won by one length and a quarter in the soft going.

Penang based trainers got the meeting off to a great start on their home turf by winning five of the six races held today.
