Newcomer Made In China catches the eye in trial
China Horse Club's newcomer MADE IN CHINA is a horse to follow, judging by his runaway trial victory at Kranji yesterday morning.
Ridden by jockey A'Isisuhairi Kasim, the James Peters-trained three-year-old showed good speed and had the trial won at the top of the straight. He was so detached from the field that A'Isisuhairi had to look back a few times to see what was happening.
Race commentator Matthew Jones said there was a lot to like about Made in China who is a maiden with only 50 rating points. How true.
