COULD BE PEARLS storms home to land his maiden win - SNTC photo
 

After playing bridesmaid in their last start, COULD BE PEARLS and LIM'S SHOT went one better to register their maiden win at Kranji here tonight.

COULD BE PEARLS was backed as if he could not lose when he romped home by 1 1/4 lengths in the Restricted Maiden - 1400m event, returning S$6 on the tote.

It was the third start for the New Zealand gelding who was purchased by his trained Cliff Brown for NZ$80,000 as a yearling.

LIM'S SHOT finished second in his only start in New Zealand and went down to OCEAN DE LAGO in his Singapore debut last month.

The four-year-old made no mistake in the Maiden - 1200m handicap tonight, also winning by 1 1/4 lengths to pay S$8.
