RACE 8: KRANJI STAKES D (SET WEIGHTS) (1) - 1600M (POLYTRACK) TIME: 16:25 PRIZE MONEY: S$38000

Larry says, "Another KSD over the poly mile without much depth. CALLIDE RIVER charged home to win at first start for new stable, he likes this trip and will be hard to beat again. BLACK BEAN tries very hard and will lead and be hard to run down, and worth noting his only wins have been at this distance. RON is well drawn and his only two wins have been at 1600m; from the ace he could go forward and be hard to run down. The old boy, DAAD’S THE WAY, drops in Class and is always a danger in these. Not many of the others offer much though SUPERMART and CHEETAH KING could show up."

RACE 9: SAAS FEE STAKES GROUP 3 (3+YO) (CONDITION WEIGHT) (RIDER ALLOWANCES NOT PERMITTED) - 1400M COURSE E (SC) (TURF TRACK) TIME: 17:00 PRIZE MONEY: S$200000

Larry says, "The Saas Fee over 1400m and we get to see whether EMPEROR MAX can make amends for his first-up defeat by FAALTLESS. There has been a gear change with the visor going on and his recent trial was sound; if he is to be a candidate for Hong Kong races later this year, he needs to put these away. One of his main dangers could be his stable mate BORN TO FLY who is very honest and for once has drawn a good gate; he will be finishing off well. SLEW OF LODE is a talented galloper resuming after numerous barrier trials, he too will close off late. Sam Chua has an interesting pair, NANDOWRA may lead and if left alone can be hard to pass whilst CAVALLO will want a solid tempo so he can finish off strongly. HOT GOLD was outclassed last start but will much prefer the 1400m. But if EMPEROR MAX brings his "A" game, he wins."

RACE 10: KRANJI STAKES D (SET WEIGHTS) (2) - 1200M COURSE E (SC) (TURF TRACK) TIME: 17:35 PRIZE MONEY: S$38000

Larry says, "A KSD over 1200m of dubious quality on the turf. KISS ME was slowly away last start and blew his chances in what looked OK Class 4 company. From gate 3 he could race handy and his form around some good horses should hold up here. SUPER VICTORY is resuming after having changed stables and dropping in Grade; his trial indicates he could race well fresh and with Barend Vorster riding, a market watch is in order. SATELLITE KING goes up only 1.5kg for his poly win over 1200m in this company last outing, he handles turf and should be in the finish. Most of the others are either non-winners or better on the poly. LION MASTER has speed and the ace but has been found wanting at his two turf outings. The professional place-getter GOOD BUDDY is the only other one with credible turf form though one never knows what TROPICAL FOREST will do."

RACE 11: CLASS 4 - 1400M COURSE E (SC) (TURF TRACK) TIME: 18:05 PRIZE MONEY: S$60000

Larry says, "A Class 4 over 1400m finishes matters off. IDEAL GUIDE was only able to win once in Australia from 13 starts but under the tutelage of Laurie Laxon he was able to put in a good effort winning in this class and distance at his Singapore debut. He only rises 1kg for the effort and should be in the finish once again. KEVIN ELEVEN will go forward and give a good sight and if he gets any leeway out front, he might be hard to run over. MEAISIN ran well when resuming in an unsuitable poly race, he will go much better in this with Manoel Nunes from a good gate. SAVODAN was caught wide last start after jumping awkwardly; Noh Senari should give him a better run in this and he could be hard to hold off. Of the others, if KAI POWER can handle the drop back to 1400m he will be closing late and if the emergency, NORTH ATLANTIC ICE, gets a run he will be very hard to beat."
