King of Siberia under a confident ride by Nobel Abrego landed a touch for connection yesterday at Santa Rosa Park, Arima.Sent off as the second favourite in the field of seven for the feature event over 1,250 metres on the main track, supporters had to hold their breath after an inquiry was called for some tightening up in the straight. However, the JMH Enterprises-owned horse kept the first-prize cheque.The feature event on the card for Three-year-old and Over horses, rated 70-55, saw the favourite Gold Rush breaking alertly but he was taken on by Swapped and Rhea's Toy Soldier as Boodramsing reigned, the John O'Brien in-mate back in fourth.
At the far turn, the pace was furious as Swapped and Rhea's Toy Soldier traded strides with Gold Rush, easing up into third as Abrego switched King of Siberia, the 2-1 shot out from the inside.At the top of the straight Rhea's Toy Soldier was now being pressed by Gold Rush as Abrego unleashed King of Siberia on the outside. With 300 metres left King of Siberia, which looked to have drifted in on Gold Rush, raced into a three-length lead and extended to the end to win easing down at the end from Officer Ike which snatched second spot from Gold Rush.
The Jonathan Lyder-trained five-year-old bay horse was registering his first win for the 2014 season.Favourite backers took a beating during the day's programme with only on favourite obliging on the eight race card.The day's leading rider was apprentice Keiran Khelawan who roide two winners in Luvdatcat and Insidious.No trainer saddled two winners.Racing continues next week at the centralized venue.
