A week after making a dream start to his career in Singapore with a debut win on LEAVE ME ALONE, Kif Toh has made the headlines again.

This time the apprentice won both his two rides on ZEDKAAR and REAL GOODMAN at Kranji here tonight, to make it three wins from four rides thus far.

While his debut win was for trainer Mohd Yusof, his first strike tonight was for his master Michael Clements on ZEDKAAR. The four-year-old benefited from two runs to score by a neck in the Initiation - 1200m sprint.

"This win is even more special this time as it was for my boss. He has been the trainer who has supported me the most here,” said Toh. "He teaches me a lot and even sent me to New Zealand for two years."

Toh's second win did not come easy as well. He had to work overtime before bringing REAL GOODMAN home a winner in the Class 5 - 1600m handicap.

Ironically, the Tan Hor Khoon-trained REAL GOODMAN beat his master's runner WEOWNA FLYER by a head.

Despite his early successes, Toh has his feet firmly on the ground. "I’m still learning what riding is all about and my aim is to go out there and make every effort to learn as much as I can," he said.
