2024 S'pore champion jockey gets off the mark early with Gray-trained Tycoon Boss

Flying Start in New Zealand for Queiroz

Bruno Queiroz's riding career in New Zealand got off to a great start when he steered Tycoon Boss to an effortless win on his second ride at Trentham, Wellington on May 10.

After clinching the 2024 Singapore champion jockey title right at its very final meeting at Kranji on Oct 5, the Brazilian returned home to continue his riding career.

He spent the next six months in Brazil before flying to his new riding base in Palmerston North on May 3.

With the help of ex-Kranji trainer Stephen Gray – who now trains with his father, Kevin, at Copper Belt Lodge in Palmerston North – Queiroz soon found himself sitting atop a winning ride at his first race meeting in New Zealand.

The Grays supplied two of his four rides at Trentham on May 10.

The 23-year-old repaid their trust with a third on Albarossa on his first ride, before going two better with maiden runner Tycoon Boss in the NZ$20,000 (S$15,300) Doctor Askar Maiden race (1,000m) in the very next race.
