FORTUNE RISING LEAVES SMART IMPRESSION AT BARRIER TRIALS
The Straits Times
|February 26, 2026
With wins in Sydney, newcomer can make an impact in Malaysia
Looking at the action on the track on the morning of Feb 24, it would have been hard to guess that the gallopers had just resumed after the Chinese New Year break.
Just like there were some eye-catching gallops on the training track, the trials run off a little later also produced a couple of headliners.
One newcomer from trainer Richard Lim's yard certainly got tongues wagging.
The four-year-old's name is Fortune Rising and, right now, his only claim to fame has to be his swiftness of foot when winning his 1,000m trial in a fast time of 59.95sec.
Ridden by Shafiq Rizuan in the opening dash of the morning, Fortune Rising showed Malaysian racing fans at Sungai Besi some of the moves which made him quite a handy sort when he broke onto the Australian racing scene as a two-year-old in the latter half of 2023.
That season, when racing as Shangri La Express for leading Sydney trainers Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott, he won on debut on Oct 21, 2023, leading from pillar to post over the short 1,000m.
The thing which made that victory all the more memorable was the fact that it was not run at some country course - but at the Sydney city racetrack of Randwick.
