Classic Arrow
causes big upset
IPOH: May 28, 2016 |
|
Malaysian bred CLASSIC ARROW, who
has already won twice this year, caused a major surprise when he was
neglected in the betting but won by three-quarter length from the
fast-finishing WASHINGTON BAY in the final event here today.
From his wide barrier (12), apprentice Daniel
Jagadishan managed to take up a handy
position early and challenged pacemaker CAMRY for the lead in the home
stretch.
It was the fourth win in 24 starts for the son of Promontory Gold and was
among the last batch of horses sold at the National Stud Farm in November
2012, costing just RM32,000.
CLASSIC ARROW paid RM240 for a win despite starting the 2016 season with a
1-2-1 record.
Former champion trainer Kevin Coetzee enjoyed a rare double nowadays when he
sent out BIG LIGHTNING and CLASSIC ARROW to victory.
