Apprentice Troy See put behind the disappointment of a two-day suspension handed to him earlier in the day to pilot NATION THEATRE to victory in the Class 4 - 1700m handicap on the polytrack at Kranji here tonight.

(See was charged for careless riding for his handling of BLACK SORCERER in a race last month.)

NATION THEATRE, disappointing when well-backed in his last two outings, beat two last-start winners to win by a head for his first success in six starts in Singapore.

It was also his first outing on the polytrack after managing just a third placing earlier. "Now that he has shown he can handle the Polytrack it certainly opens up a few options for us," said trainer Steven Burridge.

NATION THEATRE was bought for A$130,000 as a yearling and failed to live up to his price tag although he managed a win and three placings from six starts in provincial tracks in Australia.
