Trainer Michael Freedman has been having a run of success with his team of young horses in recent weeks and especially those by New Zealand sire Darci Brahma.

Reigning champion apprentice jockey Shafiq Rizuan was a relieved young man as he weighed back in the winning rider on Sunday, about four months after his last win.

Trainer Michael Freedman rang up a winning double on Sunday to extend his lead in the Singapore trainer's log by two wins from Laurie Laxon and Leslie Khoo, but probably got a bigger kick from scoring a first win with two new partners.
