Sweet Love hands Khor 1st feature win in Ipoh
The Straits Times
|June 09, 2025
Ipoh trainer Khor Peng Hwa has won his first trophy in Malaysia after Sweet Love's tenacious win in the RM26,000 (S$7,900) Mitavite Asia Cup 2025 (1,100m) in Ipoh on June 8.
 
 For good measure, Khor also pulled off his first training double in Malaysia when Crazy Love ($21) scored in the penultimate Sage Hill Northwest Stake (1,200m).
More popularly known as Ah Lek, the Malaysian handler — who received his trainer's licence only in April 2025 — opened his account when King Ravana saluted in Ipoh on May 24.
One week later on May 31, Khor sent his first and only runner, Golden Peach, to the final meeting held at Penang Turf Club.
Golden Peach finished last in a Class 4A race (1,400m) then, but Khor quickly made his way back to the winner's circle on June 8.
However, he did not expect the photo finish to be in his favour in Ipoh's feature race.
