Back to his winning Nature

IPOH:  Apr 16, 2016

 

It has been a long road back to the winner's circle, and NATURE IS NATURE is making the most of it with another top-notch display in the Gold Arrow 2006 Handicap (Class 4 - 1400m) here today.

With Harmeet Singh Gill in the saddle, the seven-year-old coasted home by five lengths ahead of the favourite CAPRICCI PRINCE to make it three wins in his last four starts.

The Lago Delight gelding had a very consistent 2013 in Singapore when he was placed in six consecutive starts before reeling off three wins on the trot.

Then came a very disappointing 2014 at the tailend of which he was transferred to veteran trainer Leong Poh Keong in Malaysia.

Last year was another season of struggle for NATURE IS NATURE but he has come back with a 'bang' this season.
