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

Larry says, "Enough horses in good form in this Class 5 Poly sprint to think there is plenty of betting activity and the tote may be a very good guide. REAL HERO showed more than enough last start dropping to Class 5 to think he wins again sooner than later and S John from gate 3 suggests sooner. GUILTLESS is in solid form but may sneak out to some value given apprentice H Syafiq has gate 12 to contend with. NOVA LEGEND may also be value after being slowly away at recent outings so his form is perhaps better than it reads on paper. Add Nunes and a drop to Class 5 and he must go very close. SUPER SPUR and SACRED CROWN two others that win without surprising on recent form and pay to keep a few others safe in what is a wide open race."

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

Larry says, "A Restricted Maiden with no depth whatsoever and as such they might be falling out of the tree's to back SHADOW OF WAR at his race debut. The Australian-bred 3YO has had two local trials and looked good when winning both. He was a tad green at his first trial - which could be a concern for favourite backers - but given nothing else jumps off the page on trial or race form, he could be hard to beat. The tote will be a good guide on the other newcomers including LEONARDO and SPECIAL RAIN who both looked solid at the trials but it may be the filly SUPER GENIUS who is the biggest threat to SHADOW OF WAR off the back of her nice trials. Only one horse with race experience looks good enough to improve and be competitive and HAYTHAM could show up if the debutantes find the races all too much."

RACE 3: CLASS 4 (1) - 1000M (POLYTRACK) TIME: 19:20 PRIZE MONEY: S$60000

Larry says, "LIM'S SINCERE looks hard to beat in this Class 4 Sprint and could be one of the better bets of the day. The 4YO has been more than competitive in better races than this of late and with Dan Beasley having a good sighter on the Steve Burridge-trained gelding at his last start, he should get the job done from gate 6 in his recent winning grade and trip. Another Lim-owned horse in LIM'S ACTION could be a good value option though. Dan Meagher trains this one and given he had all sorts of excuses last start and didn't finish far away from the winner, that run good enough to follow - hopefully at odds. In the Lim's pair favour is the fact that both COURT CASE and THE COSMOS - while in very good form - struggle to win and a couple of recent winners in ENTHUSE and THUNDER CAT, both might find Class 4 a tough option."

RACE 4: OPEN MAIDEN (WEIGHT FOR AGE) - 1200M COURSE D (SC) (TURF TRACK) TIME: 19:50 PRIZE MONEY: S$35000

Larry says, "The second maiden on the card and unfortunately this race lacks more depth than the RM Poly sprint. In fact eight of the twelve-horse field would struggle to be competitive on race or exposed trial form and they could very well look like "brown's cows" in the straight. What makes it tough is not much separates the top three picks with OLLIE EAGLE, GABBAR and TAICHI BELT all ready to win. OLLIE EAGLE resumes with blinkers added and given some nice recent trials and good form from his first campaign, he is the pick. In saying that, GABBAR drops back in trip after issues last start but is fresh enough to win over 1200m and TAICHI BELT showed more than enough at his debut to think the stable will be confident he can win this. LIM'S SHOT the only other horse worth mentioning although he may be a better winning option when blinkers go on."

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

Larry says, "This race could see a very busy finish with most of the capacity field in solid form or suited and ready to improve over two turns on the Poly. But we love a Class dropper and Q NINE MAGIC will very much appreciate Class 5 and could be hard to beat. The 5YO has been in good form on the Poly in better company than this and given this is his first foray into the bottom Class, he can knock in his second career win. DRAGON G has five wins to his name and showed last start he is not far away from adding his sixth. The 7YO ran on well last start over the mile and the extra 200m looks ideal. Two horses that improve on recent outings and might be value are SING EXPRESS and DANNY. SING EXPRESS in particular could grow a leg at odds with the Poly and drop to Class 5 in his favour. Plenty of others to watch including BIG BANKER who is due and the veteran, DAAD'S THE WAY."

RACE 6: CLASS 4 (2) - 1000M (POLYTRACK) TIME: 20:50 PRIZE MONEY: S$60000

Larry says, "The obvious choice in this Class 4 Poly sprint is LIM'S INVINCIBLE and no reason to look elsewhere for the top pick. True, the 3YO filly just fell over the line when breaking her maiden status with no weight at her second career start, but she has found a very weak Class 4 and she could be hard to beat. In her favour is most others come into this with poor form under their belt or struggle as a rule to win. Case in point is LADY IFFRAAJ who is super honest but hasn't won since making it back-to-back wins in January. FINE CHOICE is in a similar boat, with albeit less runs since his last win back August 2015, but both should be in the mix. STOCK BROKER also looks well placed in this weak field to show his best and there are a few others that might take the opportunity of a race with no depth to figure in the prizemoney."

RACE 7: CLASS 3 - 1200M (POLYTRACK) TIME: 21:20 PRIZE MONEY: S$80000

Larry says, "While the previous race had no depth, this race has good form from the top to the bottom and looks a cracker on paper. Starting from the top, FORTUNE WINNER absolutely smashed them last start when dropping back to 1200m on the Poly and connections have done the smart thing staying with a similar affair. The two other last start winners in the race are down in the weights after last start Class 4 wins but both BACH'S AIR and DISTINCTIVE DARCI can win again. In fact BACH'S AIR win was full of authority so he is a horse to follow while that was a hat-trick for DISTINCTIVE DARCI so he is obviously in fine form. Happy to have IRON MAN involved as well given he had supported and possibly had excuses at his Singapore debut and could show his best on recent trial form. Hard to leave out SUN PIONEER and BRAHMA CIRCUS but can't pick them all."

RACE 8: CLASS 4 - 1600M COURSE D (SC) (TURF TRACK) TIME: 21:50 PRIZE MONEY: S$60000

Larry says, "There is a last start winner in the field, MURDOCH, but given he had to share that win in KSD Company and it was at odds, the better form is elsewhere. And again starting from the top, DAMON looks hardest to beat. The 4YO can be his own worst enemy but it may be a matter of if he goes straight late, he wins. Plenty of others that win without surprising including PENTAGON who never had a chance in better Company than this last start and he has to be a big show on his two wins prior to that run. Likewise, LIKA TIGER comes off a shocker but it may pay to find excuses for that poor effort as he wins races like this. EN CIVIL picks himself on his solid form of late and pay to keep an eye on some others in exotics at odds including OVER EASY who could run a cheeky race."

RACE 9: CLASS 4 - 1400M COURSE D (SC) (TURF TRACK) TIME: 22:20 PRIZE MONEY: S$60000

Larry says, "As usual a very competitive Class 4 race to finish the night and with two horses - KELTIC KARMA and SATELLITE MAN - gunning for winning hat tricks. Of the two, KELTIC KARMA was impressive winning in Novice Company over this trip last start and given he only carries 0.5kg more here, he is hardest to beat. SATELLITE MAN is up in grade after KSD wins but his recent trial suggests he is up to the task. Too many others to mention but GOLD CROWN is in form and is always a winning show over his pet trip while SAVAGE STORM, STAR GENIUS, STORM TROOPER, LUCKY LINCOLN and even the second emergency, DREAMWEAVER, all win without surprising."
