1400m – Turf
1 | Nova Strike | Talented galloper who has been down on form but will appreciate a massive drop in class. The big weight will prove his biggest stumbling block but he appears well placed to run a big race. |
2 | Curvature | Has plenty of ability but returned a roarer last start when 14th behind Quarter Back. An on pace runner who you must take on trust based on last start. |
3 | Claudia’s Beauty | Handy staying mare who drops back in distance and will need a fast early speed to play a part in the finish. |
4 | Dinghu Mountain | Caught the eye last start rocketing home for 4th place to Quarter Back when coming from near last at the 800m mark. Strikes an even race and can run well. |
5 | Elite Power | Has won two of his past five starts and looks ideally placed to be hard to beat. Nice effort last start when 3rd to Quarter Back and appears a big winning chance here. |
6 | Lim’s Magic | Overlook last start in the SIN G2 Chairman’s Trophy (1600m) when outclassed behind Debt Collector. Drops in grade and on his best form he would give this a mighty shake. |
7 | Robin Hood | Withdrawn |
8 | Al Green | Inconsistent galloper who has early speed and should be on pace but hard to see him winning on current form. |
9 | Twickenham | Has been mixing it with better horses recently and is a four-time winner over 1400m. Can be a big improver. |
10 | Richebourg | Promising galloper who is rising through the ranks but jumps from Class 4 to Class 2 and despite dropping to 110lb, he is going to face a big task at this level but he will be fancied to be in the finish. |
11 | Chocolats | Won a Class 4 race last start and rises to Class 2, meeting much better opposition. His lightweight will help and he can be placed at value. |
