Rueven gets early win as
Kranji based lad SINGAPORE:
Feb 14, 2014 |
|
Rueven Ravindra receiving his
2013 Malaysia Champion Apprentice Jockey trophy from John Alexander
Rodgers on Feb 2. |
|
Having won the apprentice
jockey's title in Malaysia last year with 26 winners, Rueven Ravindra is now
ready to tackle the much tougher Singapore scene.
Five days after his transfer to trainer Laurie
Laxon became official, Rueven rode his first winner for his new master
astride FOREIGN EXCHANGE at Kranji here tonight.
The New Zealand gelding started favourite in
the Class 5 - 1800m and Rueven showed patience and great judgement to bring
the six-year-old from well off the pace early to win by a neck.
It was only the second win in 37 starts for
FOREIGN EXCHANGE and his previous win came 28 months ago.
Rueven is no stranger to Singapore racing,
having ridden three winners at Kranji last year.
