Narrowly beaten in his last two
starts, SUPER FORTUNE returned to winning ways to notch his fifth win in
eight starts in the S$125,000 iRace Classic at Kranji here tonight.
Olivier Placais, who has partnered the Mossman gelding in all his previous
runs, was again on board the four-year-old in the Kranji Stakes A - 1200m
event.
The pair settled in fourth spot behind the odds-on favourite TANNHAUSER who
set the early pace. But the leader surrendered his lead at the home bend,
with the rest of the field bunched up.
SUPER FORTUNE was stuck on the rails with nowhere to go but it was half way
down the straight when he finally managed to swift out for a run. He quickly
grabbed the lead and went on to win by length from GOLDEN SWORD.
"I
thought we came out too early. He stopped a bit in the last 200m, but he
does that all the time,” said Placais.
SUPER FORTUNE raced six times in Australia for a win and three placings
before coming to Singapore.
