King Ravana Brings Up First Career Win for Khor in Ipoh
The Straits Times
|May 26, 2025
IPOH - Khor Peng Hwa was thrilled to be welcoming his first winner at his third meeting as a full-fledged trainer, when King Ravana took out the opener in Ipoh on May 24.
-
Previously known as Gold Rush when trained by Tan Kah Soon in Singapore, King Ravana ran seventh over 1,400m in his first run for the new Malaysian handler in Ipoh on May 11.
He then ground out a tough win in the RM20,000 (S$6,000) Class 5A event (1,600m) second-up.
The $27 shot led in the straight under Saddam Saari. But at the 200m, A Better Tomorrow (Harmeet Singh Gill), on his outside, and Circuit Star (Lim Shung Uai), on his inside, drew level with him.
King Ravana fought back with every stride to score by ¾ length from A Better Tomorrow eventually. Circuit Star finished third.
Before the Ipoh-born Khor, more popularly known as Ah Lek, received his trainer's licence in April 2025, he was an assistant trainer to the late Dutch-Malaysian trainer Evert van Breukelen, and more recently, Peter Lee.
