THREE ON THE TROT FOR YES MAN

Trainer Tiang’s 4YO galloper ambles home in Class 2 race

- 

After two unplaced runs midway through the 2025 season, Yes Man has since turned his form around and hit his career-best form.

Trained by Tiang Kim Choi, the four-year-old’s scintillating win in the RM62,000 (S$19,400) Class 2 race (1,200m) at Sungai Besi on Nov 23 was his third on the trot after stepping up in grade from two impressive wins in Class 3 events.

Yes Man did win three races ~ all at Class 4 level — in the first half of 2025. He also finished third to Elite Prince in the Three-Year-Old Sprint Championship (1,200m) on June 1.

But there were also some dismal runs from the son of Yes Yes Yes. After his third win in 2025 on June 22, Yes Man tackled an open contest over 1,600m on June 29 when he finished last to Trees Of Valinor.

Following that, the Australian-bred was tested at Class 3 level in the UPBH Platinum Club Trophy for the first time on July 20, but he ran second last to Pacific MV in that 1,100m race.

However, things started to turn around for Yes Man in August, with one second and one third in that month before he hit the right note to win in a Class 3 event over 1,020m on the No. 2 track on Sept 6.
