Good Nature notched up his second Malaysian classic on Sunday when he edged out Sanjuan in a thrilling M$600,000 Group One Selangor Gold Cup (1600m).

With leading apprentice Jacky Lim in the saddle, Good Nature was able to double his feature race win count following success in the Perak Derby five runs back.

Trained by former South African horseman Kevin Coetzee, Good Nature is an Australian bred son of High Yield who was sold by Magic Millions as both a weanling and yearling.

At his most recent sale appearance Lyle Plumb purchased Good Nature for $10,000 from the Couzinz draft at the 2006 Magic Millions Gold Coast Yearling Sale.

The quality performer boasts the impressive record of eight wins and seven minor placings from just 23 starts. In that time he's earned the Golden Knight Stable over M$1.1 million.

Runner-up Sanjuan, a former smart Victorian galloper, was sent out the favourite after three unbeaten runs in Malaysia, but the Noel Callow mount was edged out by Good Nature by a short head.

Good Nature is the stand out winner to date for the once winning French Deputy mare Tears We Cry - a half sister to Hawkesbury Guineas runner-up and Silver Slipper Stakes third placegetter Five Ways.

Tears We Cry is from a Miswaki half sister to champion mare Miss Alleged - a Breeders' Cup Turf and Hollywood Turf Cup winner and proven stakes producer.
