DOUBLE STORM WARNING AT TRIALS

Storm Pegasus and Storm Titan blow rivals away at May 14 trials, ready to show mettle

DOUBLE STORM WARNING AT TRIALS

On a track rated yielding, two "Storms" blew in at the trials held at the Selangor Turf Club on the morning of May 14.

They came in quick succession, taking the second and third trials in rather convincing fashion.

First to show off was Storm Pegasus and he was to be followed by Storm Titan.

A Belardo three-year-old from the stables of Ananthen Kuppan, Storm Pegasus is shaping up to be a really good one to have in the yard.

Running on grass in the second trial of the morning, he clocked 1min 1.34sec for that 1,000m sprint.

He had Azizi Azhari in the saddle and there was never a chance that he could be beaten.

Trainer Jerome Tan's Benbo, partnered by Akmazani Marzuki took second, which left the Tan Eng Peow-trained Steel Cutter (Shazmin Sudin) far behind in third spot.

Storm Pegasus has been off the boil recently but rewind to the tail-end of the 2024 season and the beginning of this current one and you will be reminded just how talented a galloper he is.

At his third start on Dec 15, Storm Pegasus smashed his rivals when winning a competitive Open Maiden 1,200m sprint by over five lengths.
