After overcoming various problems, Lim’s Connection, by Catbird, appreciated the 1400m and a better track condition.

Ridden by French jockey Eric Legrix the flashy  4 year old chestnut steamed down the outside of the field to win by two and a half lengths.

‘I hope this horse can develop into a middle distance horse, he has a very relaxed nature and looks like he has matured, he has a bright future,’ said a delighted trainer, Steven Burridge.
