Lermyte lands first win on Flapjack

PENANG:  Apr 27, 2013

Rides have been far and few between for French jockey Jerome Lermyte since he made his debut at Kuala Lumpur last month.

In the six week since he came over from Australia to try his luck here, the 24-year-old has picked up just 10 rides prior to today.

Lermyte has just one ride in Penang today and made it count when he piloted FLAPJACK to victory in the opening event here today, beating THUNDER MAN by two and a quarter lengths in soft going.

Jose de Souza, who rode both FLAPJACK and THUNDER MAN in their last start, was on the runner-up today.

A winner in six starts in New Zealand, FLAPJACK picked up his only previous win in Malaysia in February last year.

There was also reason for apprentice Mohd Zulfikri Mohd Salim who landed his first winner on GLORY STAR for his master Richard Lines. It was also his only ride for the day.
