Plagued by injuries, former top 3YO shapes as live chance in Group 3 Committee’s Prize

MEAGHER HOPES TIGER CAN ROAR BACK TO GLORY

Daniel Meagher saddles a runner in the $110,000 Group 3 Committee's Prize (1,600m) on March 9, but it is not for the Lim's Stable.

Singapore Horse of the Year Lim's Kosciuszko alone gave the dynamic duo 11 shots at domestic Group glory for eight wins, including seven Group 1s. Before him, Lim's Lightning won four of them.

It will not be Lim Siah Mong and racing manager Mick Dittman at the parade ring, but another champion owner - Falcon Stable.

Tiger Roar will be Meagher's only contender in the feature race, and only at his second start for him.

The 2021 Group 3 Singapore Three-Year-Old Sprint (1,200m) winner joined the Australian trainer only in October after his original trainer Michael Clements' exit.

Promising campaigns plagued by injuries explained why the seven-time winner's first run for his new yard came so late.
