Wealthyness victorious for ex-Macau-based trainer in the very last race in Sungai Besi

RICKY CHOI WINS ON DEBUT

A frustrating afternoon in his debut meeting at Sungai Besi on Nov 17, turned out well for trainer Ricky Choi Chun Wai in the end, when Wealthyness ($16) outclassed his rivals to win by six lengths in the last race.

The day started disappointingly for the former Macau-based trainer when his first runner Lucky To Win finished a tame seventh in the second race.

His next runner Luen On Feelings gave a good showing, finishing third behind Noah Khan ($28) in the following race.

Who Love To Dance probably found the trip too short in the main event, the Metro A (1,400m), won by Berry Bliss ($25).

Choi's next runner Oriental Halflamma started odds-on but found Big Bad Mama ($29) too good, going down second, 5¼ lengths behind the winner.
