Royal Power pushes aside rivals for upset win

KUALA LUMPUR:  Feb 24, 2018
 

ROYAL POWER, who cost a modest A$4,500 as a yearling, showed his true worth when he made all the running in his racing debut to win the Open Maiden event over 1200m at Sungei Besi here today.

In so doing, the Australian gelding caused the biggest upset of the meeting, paying RM232 for a win.

Ridden by apprentice Laercio De Souza, ROYAL POWER finished half a length ahead of the joint favourites PENDRAGON PRINCESS and SYMPHONY ECLIPSE, separated by a short head at the line.

Richard Lines, who trains ROYAL POWER, went on to saddle three more winners as home based trainers swept all the 10 races on the card.
