PREVIEW SINGAPORE FRIDAY 22 August 2014

 

He’s back.

 

The man they call “Magic”, Joao Moreira, returns to racing in Singapore for a full-weekend for the first time since 2013.

 

The record-breaking jockey did make a cameo on International Day in May and while only riding the one winner from what looked a strong book of rides, this mixed surface meeting does look his caper.

 

Joao was a master of poly racing during his time in Singapore and he did manage to get some average horses in lower Class races to show their best.

 

So with rides in Class 5 races on the likes of AFROJACK (race 1), STATE TROOPER (race 4), PICTURE (race 6) and AFTERNOON DELIGHT (race 8), you would expect the ace Brazilian hoop to knock in a couple of wins.

 

He will also get the most out of a solid maiden in HAPPY HAPPY (race 2) and could even lift EXCAVATOR to an overdue win in a Class 4 sprint (race 5).

 

But Moreira also gets the best out of good horses and VALBUENA certainly fits that bill in race 7.

 

After only three runs in Singapore that included two in Group 1’s, the former Kiwi finds himself in suitable Class 3 company and should have the Class to show his best with Moreira pulling the strings.

 

Hopefully for followers of the now Hong Kong-based champ, he has a few winners under his belt heading into the last but if he doesn’t, ALAN could be one of his best for the day.

 

The Oscar Stable-owned Alan backed up a good Class 4 victory with a close-up second and in a race with no depth, he should really win.

 

Best Bets; (ALAN race 9, win), (OVER EASY race 6, each-way) and (SOLID WOOD race 4, value).

 

Bankers for Jackpots: Race 6 (1, 2, 3, 6 and 7), race 7 (1, 2, 3, 4 and 5), race 8 (2, 4, 5 and 7), race 9 (1, 2, 3, 4 and 5).

RACE 1: CLASS 5 (1) - 1200M (POLYTRACK) TIME: 18:20 PRIZE MONEY: S$35000

Larry says, "An interesting Class 5 over 1200m on the poly starts the programme if only for the return of the great man Joao Moreira, who takes the mount on AFROJACK - one of Alwin Tan’s two runners. The two-time winner has got out of his ground at his past two outings and has run on late; he is suited in this company and with Moreira and a good gate is likely to be much handier and will close-off well. The stablemate, GOOD BOSS can also be tardy at the start; from the wide gate with Oscar Chavez up, where he sits in the run will be a challenge but he can finish off his races. The pace should be set by ALWAYS A WINNER and if he is allowed to roll along he could be hard to pass. FISCAL WINGS may well go forward and take him on, he will be much better suited with Manoel Nunes taking over from 4kg claimer Desmond Chan. Others that should be finishing off late include SUPER BONUS who will appreciate Noh Senari and the mare GYPSY STAR who is back in trip but can finish very strongly."

RACE 2: RESTRICTED MAIDEN (2+3YO) (WEIGHT FOR AGE) - 1100M (POLYTRACK) TIME: 18:50 PRIZE MONEY: S$75000

Larry says, "A Restricted Maiden over 1100m on the poly with Alwin Tan having the three runners with the best disclosed form though none have looked blessed with above average ability. He has taken the tongue tie off but put Moreira on HAPPY HAPPY who has been close up at his previous three starts over shorter trips when ridden by apprentice jockeys; he should be in the finish once again. David Flores also replaces an apprentice on HAPPY SAGA who will appreciate getting back on the poly after a failure on turf; he will be thereabouts once again. ART OF WAR runs on well in his races, Oscar Chavez replaces the apprentice rider and he will be closing late. Of the newcomers SUPER WINNER is out of a good mare Millie Rose and has won both his trials; from the Theo Keiser stable with KB Soo up, he should debut well. HEE’S EGO is by Tale of the Cat out of the useful and very well-bred mare Quatro, with Manoel Nunes to ride he has done enough at the trials to warrant a close look. BRAHMA CIRCUS is also well-bred and whilst not showing a lot at the trials, has a top rider and good gate."

RACE 3: CLASS 4 - 1700M (POLYTRACK) TIME: 19:20 PRIZE MONEY: S$60000

Larry says, "A Class 4 over 1700m on the poly with some honest old stagers involved. There is little between a number of these and the engagement of Joao Moreira for the veteran DAAD’S THE WAY may make the difference. He has been racing as honestly as ever and ran third to the dead-heater BOOMARANG DELUXE last outing over a mile. The stablemate SPOT ON who ran a strong second in a good BM67 last outing beating ALFONSO home may go forward to set a reasonable tempo, which will suit the old fellow. In what is an open race, INSPIRE, DRAGON G and BOOMARANG DELUXE should all race handy and be in the finish. MY FRIEND JO has not won for a long time but is steadily dropping down in grade and the distance and surface suit. BATTLE BOY is still a maiden but did not miss by much over a mile in this grade last start – he could surprise."

RACE 4: CLASS 5 - 1100M (POLYTRACK) TIME: 19:50 PRIZE MONEY: S$35000

Larry says, "A raffle of a Class 5 over 1100m on the poly with plenty of the usual suspects involved. When Moreira was last in Singapore he was the master of these and has taken the mount on STATE TROOPER who is far from reliable but did win in KSD company at this trip three starts back. With Joao to keep him honest, he may be hard to hold out. Two of the speedier ones, JET SET and BRILLIANT BEAUTY are drawn out but if they can get away and cross, they may be hard to pass late. BRILLIANT BEAUTY’s stablemate, DRAGON PLAYER is also poorly drawn but does get back in his races; third run up from a spell after a strong second when ridden by P.Dellorto last start, he gets Davey Flores and may be the one closing late. SOLID WOOD is down in grade, he has won at KSD level over 1100m and from the ace could give Irishman Tadgh O’Shea a welcome winner. Amongst the many other chances JADE WIN resuming with a nice trial under his belt and STREET RUFFIAN who put in a much improved performance last start could get in the finish. If the emergency SO PERFECT gets a run he will be right in the finish."

RACE 5: CLASS 4 (1) - 1200M COURSE C (LC) (TURF TRACK) TIME: 20:20 PRIZE MONEY: S$60000

Larry says, "A Class 4 over 1200m on turf and the interesting runner is ASPEN who was placed at Group level in 3YO company in NZ as well as winning over 1400m. He has been trialing very well and with Manoel Nunes to steer from a good gate, will be hard to beat. GOLDEN MISSION has only won one race in Singapore but he is never far away, Nooresh Juglall stays on and his recent strong trial indicates another good performance. SAVODAN has yet to really live up to expectations, he battled over 1400m last start but has had a blinker/pacifier trial since and from the ace with Alan Munro up, should get every chance. EXCAVATOR last won in February, 2012 when he beat ATO. On that occasion Moreira was aboard; he gets to try and do it again this time in Class 4. Down in the weights SATELLITE KING ran 3rd in a KSD over 1200m two starts back and drops 8kg, whilst FLAMING FIREHEART gets a 5.5kg drop in weight from his Maiden win over the same distance. KISS ME and TROPICAL FOREST could also show up in an open affair."

RACE 6: CLASS 5 - 1800M (POLYTRACK) TIME: 20:50 PRIZE MONEY: S$35000

Larry says, "While there looks plenty of depth to this race (go wide in exotics), we could narrow it down to three or four winning hopes on paper. Two horses in particular - GALAXY EXPRESS and OVER EASY - are coming off good runs in better company and like to think they both play a big part in this finish. GALAXY EXPRESS has only won one race from some 20 career starts but given his good recent form, a drop in grade with Harry Kassim up looks a winning combination. He has drawn well too (5) and you would expect a very forward run. OVER EASY hasn't drawn well but will get back anyway so that might be OK. He has shown at his last few starts since blinkers went back on he is due to win again and he should be motoring late. Of the others with winning hopes, Joao Moreira has had one ride on PICTURE for one win - say no more - and DOMENICO is better than what he showed last start with blinkers off a good move."

RACE 7: CLASS 3 - 1800M COURSE C (LC) (TURF TRACK) TIME: 21:20 PRIZE MONEY: S$80000

Larry says, "I think it's safe to say that the punters support will be evenly shared in this small but very good Class 3 field and it might be worth waiting to see if the connections do jump on one particular horse. And with tactics likely to play a bit part in the race and a solid early pace expected, it could be set up for swoopers and a very busy finish. Laurie Laxon has two runners who will be strong late and happy to think NEW YORK CITY - who has a cult following in Singapore - and VALBUENA have a big say in this finish. VALBUENA - with Joao Moreira on - is having is first run since a relatively rushed Derby campaign and he looks a horse to follow. NEW YORK CITY swoops as good as any and should handle the rise in Class with Dan Beasley staying on a good move. But plenty of others in spanking form and WAR TIME is looking for his fourth win on-the-trot and FUJIN BRIGHT very much appreciates the drop back to Class 3 company. Throw in TANGIBLE ASSETS and the promising ZEDKAAR."

RACE 8: CLASS 5 (2) - 1200M (POLYTRACK) TIME: 21:50 PRIZE MONEY: S$35000

Larry says, "Kiwi trainer, Stephen Gray, looks to have a very big say in this Class 5 Poly sprint with three runners. And given he has booked a couple of very good hoops in Juglall and Moreira on BANKERS CALL and AFTERNOON DELIGHT respectively, his charges should figure heavily late. Moreira has to contend with gate 12 but AFTERNOON DELIGHT is in solid form and very much appreciates a strong senior hoop. Likewise, BANKERS CALL is in solid form and has drawn wide but the switch to a senior hoop in Juglall is significant. The race is not strong but SINGLE STAR showed first-up he will win a race this campaign sooner than later with the maiden, PEREGRINE FALCON, also ready to win. Watch the tote looks good advice on the others."

RACE 9: CLASS 4 (2) - 1200M COURSE C (LC) (TURF TRACK) TIME: 22:20 PRIZE MONEY: S$60000

Larry says, "ALAN might not have been a good thing beaten last start but he went mighty close to making it back-to-back wins and with Moreira on-board, he can close the day off well for punters. The race is obviously suitable given his efforts of late in similar affairs and doesn't have a lot of depth. The horses he has to beat include a newcomer from the UK in HE'S A STRIKER. The 4YO brings consistent form from his races in the UK and a nice local trial suggests he is ready to show his best first-up. ALPHA CENTAURI resumes and certainly showed more than enough at his last campaigns to think he is better than most. He hasn't set the world on fire at recent trials but on ability, he wins races like this with a market watch in order. Last start winner, the consistent LUCKY DAPPER, picks himself and it will pay to keep MARSEILLE ROULETTE safe sans blinkers as he is better than recent form suggests."

Selections - 4, 5, 1
1 7334* Alpha Centauri     M Nunes M Walker 11 61 57.0 6.00
Smart enough type resuming with tongue-tie and pay to keep safe first-up.
2 18987 Marseille Roulette     A Munro H Takaoka 5 61 57.0 20
Blinkers off after disappointing run of form but recent trial suggests he shows a bit late.
3 05251 Lucky Dapper     N Juglall P Shaw 7 58 55.5 5.00
Broke through for well-deserved an overdue win last start and will be more than competitive.
4 70712 Alan     J Moreira L Laxon 8 57 55.0 2.80
Beaten a whisker last start and looks hard to beat in this field.
5   He's A Striker     Cw Brown M Freedman 1 56 54.5 6.00
Former UK galloper who looked good enough at the trials to consider at Singapore debut.
6 80 Faber Heights     App K A'isisuhairi-1 S Gray 9 55 54.0 50
Resuming sans winkers and easier to ignore.
7 00 North Atlantic Ice     T O'shea C Brown 10 54 53.5 50
Needs to show something before we consider.
8 69748 Yourstokeep     I Santana S Chua 2 54 53.5 20
Might pay to ignore last start in atrocious conditions and include in exotics at odds on previous oK form.
9 00275 Angry Cat     D Beasley Hw Tan 3 52 52.5 8.00
Unreliable but some recent efforts good enough to run a race here.
10 238*5 Work Ahead     I Saifudin Hw Tan 6 51 52.0 20
Best form is on the Poly and have to take on trust.
11 95155 Gypsy Magic     L Allpress L Khoo 12 49 51.0 20
Competitive and a must for exotics at value.
12 89804 Lucky Come     App J See-3 Hw Tan 4 47 50.0 33
OK last start but like to see in Class 5 on the Poly.
