Friday Meeting Preview

RACE 7: PROGRESS - 1400M COURSE E (SC) TIME: 16:20 PRIZE MONEY: S$75000

Larry says, "Five races from Singapore today's mixed surface meeting with races 7,8,9,10 on the E Short Course Turf and race 11 on the all-surface Poly. TEEN ANGEL looks to be one of the specials of the night. She comes out well on top in the race conditions and the 2kg claim makes her very hard to beat. Obviously her form is excellent - unbeaten on the turf - so expect very short odds. For value keep ETERNAL HONOUR, with Robbie Fradd aboard, very safe. His last two have been very eye-catching and well worth some thought with blinkers added a significant gear change. The Laurie Laxon-trained Martial Arts looks the interest runner with market a very good guide."

RACE 8: CLASS 5 - 1400M COURSE E (SC) TIME: 16:50 PRIZE MONEY: S$35000

Larry says, "This looks a very ordinary Class 5 event and market may be the best guide as not a lot of good form to go on. COSMIC VANGUARD showed enough last start with blinkers back on to think he could back up and win with Sean Cormack on board. LOOK AT ME has been in solid form without a result but he did have enough excuses at his last run to think he could be the one to watch at value. Moreira will make sure FRANCO is under the odds but he does go well on the horse so pay to keep safe."

RACE 9: KOREA RACING AUTHORITY TROPHY OPEN BENCHMARK 89 - 1200M COURSE E (SC) TIME: 17:20 PRIZE MONEY: S$95000

Larry says, "A very tricky sprint with no horse having the form or in well enough at the weights to think they are good things. NEW TARGET has put in enough eye-catching runs to think he is ready to put it all together and win although he would want to keep the exciting PERFECT PINS in his sights. With Moreira on board the stable will be hoping he can rebound from an unsuccessful run at Group level in Malaysia and if on song could win. MAPLE STAR is in great form without a result and might be value in what is an open affair."

RACE 10: CLASS 5 - 1200M COURSE E (SC) TIME: 17:55 PRIZE MONEY: S$35000

Larry says, "Very interesting race and while the top two hopes, SECONDTONONE and DARMITA, look like the best winning chances it is a Class 5 race with depth and pay to keep a few safe. SECONDTONONE will relish the drop in Class and was doing too much in better company not to be the one to beat. DARMITA, with Sean Cormack on board, picks himself on winning form and will have plenty of admirers. ZAC POWER, DARK KNIGHT, PRIOR VISCOUNT, and GENTLEMANS HONOUR are just some that will keep those two honest."

RACE 11: CLASS 4 - 1100M (POLYTRACK) TIME: 18:25 PRIZE MONEY: S$55000

Larry says, "A few smart Poly horses in the last with PRINCE PARETO certainly looking hard to beat and likely to have plenty of punter support. He is returning after a bad run with heavy support back in May but certainly looks good enough on the Poly to overcome awkward gate and win. BING IS BEST has also drawn wide but form suggests he also gives this a shake and well worth a look. FAT KING, however, could surprise them all after a solid effort at his Singapore debut coupled with a very nice trial in the company of ROCKET MAN. That effort wont go unnoticed by pundits but with a couple of proven horses to beat he might be some value. KNIGHT KINGDOM and QUEEN NARCISSUS have to be included in exotic combinations. BEST BETS: Special - TEEN ANGEL (race 7). Value - NEW TARGET (race 9). Bankers for jackpots - Race 7 (#6), Race 8 (#1, #5, #6, #2), Race 9 (field), Race 10 (#2 and #10) and Race 11 (#1 and #4)."
