KUALA LUMPUR - Pacific Vampire proved his dominance over the sharp 1,020m sprint in the RM62,000 (S$18,900) Supreme A race at Sungai Besi on Aug 17, albeit on the No. 2 track.

With his natural early speed, the Jason Ong-trained six-year-old has - more often than not - proved hard to catch when racing on the main track in Selangor.

But with the Supreme A contest run over the sharper No. 2 track on the inside, three well-backed runners took Pacific Vampire on, consisting of his stablemate and the bang-in-form Filial Dragon - who won four consecutive races before going down to Noah Khan in his last start - Platinum Fort and Bransom.

But they all proved to be no match for Pacific Vampire as he cruised to a 3¼-length victory.
