Saturday Malaysia Racing – Pasir Pinji set to atone

New Zealand-bred Pasir Pinji won the recent G1 Selangor Gold Cup.

First up from a seven-week break, progressive performer PASIR PINJI loks well placed for a winning return when he lines up in the 1300m Class 4 contest at Kuala Lumpur on Saturday.

PASIR PINJI suffered his first local defeat but was far from disgraced when finishing runner up to the inform Perfect here on January 23. The six-year-old was resuming from a two-month spell on that occasion and produced a quick turn of speed from midfield to fail by a neck at the finish.

After posting one victory from eighteen runs in Singapore, PASIR PINJI created an immediate impact on the local scene notching the hat trick at his first three Malaysian starts for trainer, Simon Dunderdale. The gelding wasn’t overly taxed when placed in a trial here on Tuesday and should make light work of the top weight this weekend.
