                    [Title] => West Bound a stride closer to TC feat
                    [Summary] => Bound for Triple Crown glory.


Showing the grace, the strength and the heart of a true champion, West Bound moved toward that direction yesterday by claiming his second Triple Crown jewel this year — the J.V. Ongpin Cup — before a highly-satisfied crowd at the San Leisure Park in Carmona, Cavite.

The three-year-old colt owned by C & H Enterprise proved too hot to handle for the seven other contenders, leaving Security Master as the only threat, minor as it was, in his bid to become the newest Triple Crown champion in local history.

After Golden Ballet ruled the first leg in the Cojuangco Cup, then followed by Halo Effect in the J. V. Ongpin Cup, who could possibly take the Horseman’s Cup (the honoree this year is Ms. Livia de Leon, chairperson of the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office)?

The question will be answered today.

Eleven of the country’s top three-year-old will see action in the race offering a total purse of P1.67 million.

Ongpin Cup today, a roster that includes eight chargers he dominated in the first leg and four showing no hints at foiling his bid for racing immortality.

The bad tracks at San Lazaro may slow down the prized Patrick Uy’s grey colt but experts believe Silver Story will have another romp the way he routed the field in the kickoff leg of this year’s series, the Cojuangco Cup.
