Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted March 5, 2023 Journalists Share Posted March 5, 2023 Sabah Star (NZ) (Pins) made up for his luckless second last start after he motored home strongly to score in a Class 3 1400 race at Kranji on Saturday. The six-year-old son of Pins, who last won in a Class 3 race in April last year, ran second in a Class 4 race last month, but he was found to have cast both his fore plates after the race. “He ran second in a Class 4 (race) last time, but we always knew he’s a decent horse with ability in Class 3 races,” said jockey A’Isisuhairi Kasim who has ridden Sabah Star five times previously. “He pulls in his races, but I was very happy with how the horse worked this week because he was a lot more settled. I told the trainer he can run a big race today. “He was very well-behaved even when we were walking over to the barriers. “He’s drawn one and a light weight helped today. I know what he’s like so I left him alone early and he was travelling in a very relaxed manner.” Sabah Star was sold by breeders Waikato Stud at the 2017 New Zealand Bloodstock Weanling Sale for $24,000 to Landsdowne Park who then sold him at the Karaka Book 1 Sale for $85,000 to Stephen Gray. He takes his record to eight wins and four placings from 29 starts, Sabah Star has now amassed over S$250,000 in prizemoney for connections. Other New Zealand bred winners in Singapore on Saturday include Lim’s Zoom (Zacinto), & Seson (Dalghar). View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
