LORD ROBERTO wins in Singapore

FORTUNA four year old gelding, LORD ROBERTO ( Encosta de Lago-Prized Glory), produced an all the way win in a 1700 metre, Open Benchmark 65 event in Singapore yesterday. Going straight to the lead from a wide barrier draw, LORD ROBERTO was beautifully rated by Apprentice jockey, HARRY KASIM and strode to the winning post two lengths clear of the second horse.

Fortuna Director, John Galvin, is well pleased with his charge, ” LORD ROBERTO has been running consistently in recent weeks and yesterday’s win was not unexpected. He is a lovely staying type who will run in the Singapore Derby if he makes the field, but I also think he would be a great candidate in the Singapore Gold Cup to be run in November. He has now had ten starts in Singapore for two wins and has won over S$100k in prizemoney.”
