RACE 8: ALWAYS FAST 2006 STAKES CLASS 5 - 2200M COURSE A (SC) TIME: 16:25 PRIZE MONEY: S$35000

Larry says, "A Class 5 over 2200m on the turf and OVER EASY is tossed in at the weights. He took on the venerable INCREDIBLE HULK going down to that noble warrior over this trip by 0.8 of a length two starts back but as the Hulk has scored again since, he meets him 7.5kg better. That should be enough to turn the tables. ANGE D'ORIENT ran third in that same race and they should fight it out again. Of the others, if the enigmatic BRAVO is in the mood he could upset the applecart as he is one of the few in the race with a turn of foot. SINGING DUNE is very dour and he could be one for the exotics."

RACE 9: EW BARKER TROPHY (SG2) (3+YO) (HCP) (RIDER ALLOWANCES NOT PERMITTED) - 1400M COURSE A (SC) TIME: 17:00 PRIZE MONEY: S$350000

Larry says, "The feature of the day - the EW Barker over 1400m on the turf. Pat Shaw looks to have a strong hand with MAGNETO who is following on from his strong 3rd in the Kranji Mile and SLEW OF LODE who ran EMPEROR MAX very close in the Saas Fee. They could fight it out from Laurie Laxon's DANIEL who will be better suited at 1400m and Stephen Gray's perennial place-getter BORN TO FLY. INDIAN JADE and THESE STREETS are interesting runners with both being progressive types but whether they are up to the Class at this stage is problematical. The top-weight GOAL KEEPER is an excellent sprinter but he is being tried over 1400m for the first time."

RACE 10: RECAST 2005 STAKES KRANJI STAKES D (SET WEIGHTS) - 1600M COURSE A (SC) TIME: 17:35 PRIZE MONEY: S$38000

Larry says, "A tricky KSD over a mile on turf. DRAGON is unreliable but possesses a very good turn of foot late and in a race that should suits swoopers, he gets his chance with regular hoop, Dan Beasley, staying on. But even though MINI BOSS can be erratic he has enough ability to get away with this. Ivaldo Santana is riding in good form and if he can settle him with cover, he should finish too strongly. SUPER VOICE is usually thereabouts but doesn't win very often which is obviously a concern for followers. ABOVE THE HORIZON won a weak one last start but that was at his third Singapore start so can improve again. RON will benefit from a positive ride and SATELLITE PRINCE is racing well though his barrier is no help. DAHLHAUS has poor recent form but this race is more suitable and he could surprise."

RACE 11: EXAGGERATE 2004 STAKES CLASS 4 (2) - 1200M COURSE A (SC) TIME: 18:05 PRIZE MONEY: S$60000

Larry says, "A Class 4 over 1200m on turf closes things off. POWERNOVA and KAISER BRIGHT are both resuming and both are good consistent sprinters at this level. POWERNOVA has had the benefit of a recent trial, looks very well placed with Zuriman's 2kg claim and should be handy all the way. KAISER BRIGHT's form during his last preparation was very consistent and with Alan Munro to ride, he should be able to cross from his wide gate and be on the speed throughout. Of the rest, SATELLITE KING is in good form, BRIGHT GENERAL trialled well recently and the enigmatic JOE deserves some consideration. BANNISTER is resuming and with Corey Brown taking the ride, deserves a market watch."
