The$100,000 purchasebyChris and Michael Wardfrom theInglis Premier Yearling Sale in 2014 is a very exciting prospect for the entire Triple Crown team and appears to have it all ahead of him.

Fellow Peter Moody trained four year old Liminal (Nicconi ex Lime Squeeze) continuedTriple Crown'shot streak with a three length win at the transferred Sale meeting at Pakenham on Sunday.

Liminal also boasts an impressive race record with now two wins and two second placings from only five starts. The synthetic track posed no concern to the flashy chestnut as he produced a devastating turn of foot in the home straight and put his opponents away in what was a very encouraging first up race this campaign.

Certain the win would bring him on and provide the son of Nicconi with a confidence boost, Moody is now looking forward to progressing him through the grades.

Congratulations to all Triple Crown connections!
