Superstardom beckons for Mat Smart

KUALA LUMPUR:  Feb 15, 2020
 

Sold just days ago, SUPERSTARDOM quickly repaid his new owner when he carved out a narrow win in a Class 3 - 1400m handicap at Sungei Besi her today.

The Street Boss gelding had registered back-to-back wins late last year but was transferred to trainer Wayne Lim after an unplaced outing last December.

His new owner also applied for a change of new name for the five-year-old which will only take effect on Monday, but SUPERSTARDOM signed off on his old name with his fourth win in 15 starts in Malaysia.

SUPERSTARDOM had come from Australia with a record of two placings in eight runs.

Meanwhile, MAT SMART made it three wins in four starts with a runaway win in another Class 3 - 1400m sprint.

The four-year-old was placed just once in six starts in Australia but is an instant hit here and growing from strength to strength.
