RACE 8: KRANJI STAKES D (SET WEIGHTS) (2) - 1100M (POLYTRACK) TIME: 16:25 PRIZE MONEY: S$38000

Larry says, "A competitive KSD over 1100m on the poly with numerous trainers looking to improve their horses chances with claims. RACER KING is down in grade and with Zuriman’s 2kg claim he should be on the speed throughout and be hard to beat. TIM also will enjoy being back on the poly and Laurie Laxon has engaged Farrick Tan with his 3kg claim. In a race in which there should be plenty of speed from the likes of KAISER and CALIFORNIA SUN, this could set it up for BARNBURGH LAD to run on strongly. The veteran GYPSY MAGIC can't be discounted and while he is nearing a century of race starts, he is in good form, loves the Poly and might just show the youngsters a thing or two at odds."

RACE 9: POLYTRACK MILE CHAMPIONSHIP (SG3) (3 YEAR OLD AND UPWARDS) (WFA) (RIDER ALLOWANCES NOT PERMITTED) - 1600M (POLYTRACK) TIME: 17:00 PRIZE MONEY: S$200000

Larry says, "The Polytrack Mile championship and the current Singapore Gold Cup and New Year Cup winner QUECHUA looks the one to beat. The 4YO is coming back in trip but is a flexible type freshened who should be able to race handy all the way. The danger may be TRUDEAU who was forced to lead last start before being run down. The pride of the Arexevan Stable is well treated at the weights and Michael Rodd should give him a good run. The pace may be muddling and a horse such as DAVIDE could go forward and run a cheeky race. ONE RAR was not far away on the turf last start but has an outstanding poly record whilst FLAX and THUMPING have to be taken on trust on the surface. In saying that, FLAX is best suited at the WFA conditions so pay to respect."

RACE 10: CLASS 3 - 1600M COURSE C (SC) TIME: 17:35 PRIZE MONEY: S$80000

Larry says, "A good Class 3 over a mile with a number in form. OM broke through for a deserved win last start and while he is up in grade and can find trouble, Manoel Nunes stays on and should be running on strongly once again. IMPEL has been close up over 1400m at BM67 level last his two outings, he has won at a mile in NZ and should be prominent throughout. CLUTHA LAD is the interesting runner. The 5YO has yet to win on the turf in Singapore but had plenty of excuses and ran on last start so happy to follow. KNIGHT SPIRIT ran on well last start over 1200m, he gets a handy claim, is proven at this class and distance and should be closing late. POWERNOVA is very consistent, he is up in grade and distance but has no weight and can give a sight. Of the others DANGER ZONE won last start and is very consistent as is TO BE REMEMBERED and WORLD WAR."

RACE 11: CLASS 4 - 1200M COURSE C (SC) TIME: 18:05 PRIZE MONEY: S$60000

Larry says, "A Class 4 over 1200m closes the programme and KNIGHT WAGER will find this much easier than the Three Rings Trophy. He scored well at this level two starts back (at his Singapore debut) and with Michael Rodd on board, should be hard to beat. CONVICT resuming is the interesting runner. The 7YO has a good first-up record and looks well-placed in Class 4 with a 4kg claimer on to show his best. The Cliff Brown runner INVINCIBLE GOLD was close up last start and should be in the finish. DYLAN will be running on from the back and they look the main chances. Of the rest, SING ROULETTE could give a sight, MONT BLEU could improve and COOL CAT down in grade could show up."
