RACE 8: KRANJI STAKES D (SET WEIGHTS) (1) - 1200M COURSE B (LC) (TURF TRACK) TIME: 16:25 PRIZE MONEY: S$38000

Larry says, "A KSD over 1200m will give SECRET LIBERTY her chance. She is a very speedy mare and with the claim for Syafiq from the good gate, should be hard to run down. However, ZAC COMMAND goes well at this trip and Manoel Nunes should give him every chance. He went ever so close to making it back-to-back last start and he figures late. SOON YI has only won three times from 40 starts but regularly places and can be expected to be in the finish once again. TIM had a rare run on turf last start and did well enough to suggest he could show up in this. Nearly all the others are polytrackers though BINGO always has the capability of surprise."

RACE 9: OPEN STAKES (3 YEAR OLD AND UPWARDS) (CONDITION WEIGHT) (RIDER ALLOWANCES NOT PERMITTED) - 1600M COURSE B (LC) (TURF TRACK) TIME: 17:00 PRIZE MONEY: S$125000

Larry says, "A small but competitive Open Stakes field go over the mile. ONE RAR resumed with strong effort - which was a bit of a surprise given his winning form had been on the Poly - and he will be hard to beat once again. THUMPING is an honest mare and the mile suits as does her light weight, so she comes under notice. FLAX is resuming and goes well fresh so look for a big run from this game horse. Improvement can be expected from TRUDEAU who will have derived benefit from his first-up run and Michael Rodd stays aboard."

RACE 10: KRANJI STAKES C (SET WEIGHTS) - 1400M COURSE B (LC) (TURF TRACK) TIME: 17:30 PRIZE MONEY: S$80000

Larry says, "A KSC over 1400m and OLYMPIC ANTHEM looks one to follow. The 4YO was a pretty handy horse in Queensland where he won three times on the turf and after a strong Singapore debut win on the poly, this looks much more suitable. In that race he beat GOOD NEWS who has only raced three times on turf for one placing and never beyond 1200m; he was dominant in this grade on the poly last start but this will be a different test. ASPEN could be one to watch. The 4YO looked a good thing beaten last start and will keep the favourite honest here with Nunes staying on-board. IDEAL GUIDE is resuming after his attempt at the Singapore Gold Cup, he has won three times at the trip and could show up fresh. GOLD DANCER is suited at the trip and can make his presence felt. Laurie Laxon’s pair NEW YORK CITY and ALFONSO could race well fresh."

RACE 11: CLASS 4 - 1400M COURSE B (LC) (TURF TRACK) TIME: 18:00 PRIZE MONEY: S$60000

Larry says, "A Class 4 over 1400m closes the programme. PERFECT CHALLENGER finds himself in Class 4 and will improve at this journey on turf. Oscar Chavez stays on and he really should race well in this company. DRAGON ran on very well when resuming on the poly, his best form is at a mile but 1400m whilst fresh should be no problem. The Cliff Brown-trained JUST NAME IT also enjoys the 1400m and is suited in this grade. He has two other chances with INTENSE GOLD who is trialling well and ZAC SEDUCTION who has also won at the trip. SCIENCE FICTION and HE’S A STRIKER coming back to a more suitable trip can also be expected to race well. The interesting runner is SQUIRE OSBALDESTON trained by Stephen Gray and to be ridden by Corey Brown, he placed at listed level in the UK and won twice on the all-weather at 2000m; his trials have been impressive and he could show up fresh."
