Ocean Park’s son in hot staying form
Clement Legend has continued his rise through the staying ranks in Singapore with an impressive run of form.
The son of Ocean Park has really blossomed through his spring and summer campaign with three consecutive victories.
He has been untested to score at Happy Valley and a Sha Tin double over ground, each time being untested to win.
Trained by Danny Shum, Clement Legend was originally purchased by Raffles Racing at Karaka for $180,000.

She is a half-sister to the Gr.3 Kingston Town Stakes winner Just Polite, the dam of the Gr.1 Auckland Cup heroine Ladies First.
