Clyde Leck hits sixer for third time
KUALA LUMPUR: Nov 26, 2022
For the third time year, apprentice Clyde Leck booted home six winners in a single meeting in what looks increasingly like his championship season.
His six wins at Sungei Besi here today brought his tally to 67 for the season. With just six meetings left of the season, Clyde is 14 winners ahead of Rueven Ravindra who rode a double today. Incidentally, Rueven is the only other rider to achieve a six-winner feat during the year.
It was an incredible feat to ride six winners in a meeting three times in a season, something unprecedented. Clyde, indentured to his father Charles Leck, only started riding last year.
“Really happy to be able to get six winners in a day for the third time,” said Clyde. “I guess the third time in really the charm.”
“Thankful for the support from my dad and (trainer) Simon Dunderdale who have been providing me with winners after winners.
“I would like to thank the Selangor Turf Club Apprentice School for giving us time and opportunity to broaden our spectrum and racing knowledge and keeping us fit as well. I will do my best to improve on race riding and hopefully there will be more days like this.”
Clyde reeled off three consecutive races on WANTED PAYOUT, PERFECT BRANDZ and THE MAREEBA MANGO.
He went on to win three more races with BERRY BLISS, NAUGHTY KID and MENTAL. All his six winners started favourite in their respective races.
