Moongate Light
shining bright at eight
PENANG: Jan 30, 2022 |
|
|
Despite turning eight, MOONGATE
LIGHT is racing at his best-ever form after his relocation from Singapore in
the middle of last year.
Winner of three races in 20 starts at Kranji, the Bachelor Duke gelding
began his Malaysian campaign in style, winning his first debut in Class 3
and then defeated the top-rated GRAND CROSS on this track the next start.
MOONGATE LIGHT then finished second to VIOLET in the Sports Toto Supreme
Challenge Cup last month and ended the 2021 season with a third-place finish
in the Christmas Trophy here.
And now, MOONGATE LIGHT has started the new season with stylish win in the
New Year Trophy over 1200m here today.
Although the distances was shorter than the his recent trips, the New
Zealand gelding was able to settle just behind the pace and raced past the
pacemaker RELAU STAR in the final 200m to win confortably.
