Since being outclassed in the Lion City Cup back in April, CELAVI has bounced back in style.

A relatively easy win in Class 3 in May was followed by a hard-fought victory when promoted to Class 2.
 
The Australian mare then showed just how much she has progressed since when he she romped home by four lengths in the Class 2 - 1100m sprint on the polytrack at Kranji here today.

Ridden by Louis-Philippe Beuzelin, who rode her to three victories last year, CELAVI just showed too much class for her rivals as she picked up her sixth win in 10 starts.

"Louis, who couldn't ride her at her last two wins, said she has really improved. She's taken the next step and I was really pleased with the way she ran and obviously, won the race," said trainer Michael Clements.

"I was happy how she settled outside the leader, and how she responded and found the line. We haven't done a lot with her on the track since her trial, just an easy gallop during the week.

"We'll see how things go and look for another similar Polytrack race for her. The Merlion Trophy is obviously her main target at the end of the year."
