RACE 1
An even bunch line-up here. Jeremy (1) probably has the best form credentials. Has three placings to his credit in five starts and wasn’t too far away last time in finishing fourth. Drawn well in barrier 4 and despite the weight should go close. Patrician (7) had been racing well before a last start flop. Expect an improved showing this time while Bold Rob (2) boxed on soundly behind a handy performer last time and should again figure prominently. Lucky Steed (3) showed improvement with his latest performance and should not be left out of calculations.
RACE 2
A tricky race with five of the 11 runners having their first start in a race. Super Star (10) has bumped into a couple of handy performers at his only two runs so far and from barrier 4 should be in the firing line for a long way, especially after the claim for in form apprentice Joseph See. Media Mogul (8) made up a stack on ground on debut and the extra distance, along with race experience, should be beneficial while Sir Fleetwood (9) is making his debut but has trialled nicely and must be respected. Ace Alarde (7) is nicely bred and in good hands and should not be dismissed here on debut either.
RACE 3
Not a bad line-up. Chief Secretary (10) was a little disappointing last time but he can bounce back to form here. His previous run was good when just nailed by Fatkid and from barrier 5 should get a good run. Zac Detonator (7) is a most honest galloper and a return to the 1600m trip is ideal while Oblivion (11) has had three runs back following a break and should be right at his peak now for this event. World Famousman (6) was successful over 1400m three runs back and his recent efforts have been sound. He should not be dismissed in an open race.
RACE 4
A return to the Polytrack and a step up in distance can pave the way for My Way (1) getting back into the winner’s circle. He won over 1700m three runs back before fair efforts on the turf at past two. This looks a suitable race. Kaepeeyai (2) put the writing on the wall with a solid finishing effort last time and the claim for Erasmus Aslam brings him in nicely while Simple Man (6) is still a maiden but his past couple of efforts have been solid and he should not be dismissed. Kingdom Eightyone (4) is back in distance this time around but his past couple of efforts have been sound and he deserves consideration.
RACE 5
Looks a race with plenty of pace. Northern Lion (3) has a great 1000m record and loves the Polytrack. The drop in weight this time around brings him in nicely despite the class rise and although drawn off the track he should be hard to stop. Break Free (4) is a very speedy customer who tried to match it with Rocket Man last time. He’s much better off in this company while Big Choice (6) tried bravely last time and with the pace on here will be strong to the finish. Howgoodisthat (5) is creeping down in the weights and improvement can be expected this time around.
RACE 6
A race with not a lot of depth. Nero Grotto (7) showed plenty of improvement last time out and indicated a win is near with a strong on-pace second placing. That effort indicated a win is near at hand. Magic World (4) worked home soundly last time and after the claim for Joseph See doesn’t look too badly treated while Big Moment (11) ran a better race last time and gets in here with no weight after the claim for Koh Teck Huat. Stitch In Time (2) is still a maiden but meets a moderate bunch here and is worth thought.
RACE 7
There was a lot to like about the first-up win of Merchant (5). He sat back behind the pace before pouncing on Maple Star late to record a strong victory. The runner-up has since confirmed the form. Over The Rainbow (2) is lightly-raced here in Singapore and has an excellent record. He should shape well first-up after a break while Gustoriko (8) is giving away age to his rivals but his record to date reads well and he must be respected. Monkey Man (1) is never far away in this type of race and will be finishing strongly.
RACE 8
Some nice young horses to line-up here. Movie Goer (9) looked good winning on debut over a handy type in Matterhorn who has since confirmed that form. Simply The Best (7) scored a decisive win on debut over Rotarua before bumping into Kennecott last time. This looks a good test while Yoyo (8) scored a stunning win on this surface last time out and is again expected to give a bold sight here. Api Api (1) disappointed first-up but his form before a break was excellent and with added fitness here can be expected to give this a shake.
RACE 9
Not an easy assignment to finish off a good night of racing. Back to 1000m and with the claim for Koh Teck Huat, Magician (10) should give a bold sight. He was successful over 1100m in weaker grade two starts back but at this trip with no weight he should be tough to run down. Zestfulgo (4) is resuming but his form before a break was excellent. Expect a forward showing first-up while Magic Sky (6) was disappointing last time but on the strength of his two previous wins is well worth another chance. Another Sunday (2) is so honest and with Saimee Jumaat in the saddle should make a bold bid.
