KRANJI

RACE 1
1st Pick: GOLDEN DASH (5)
Will appreciate the drop in grade and finds conditions to suit. Has a class edge on this field and will take beating with the right breaks.
2nd Pick: SUPER WIN (12)
Has been struggling to win but will appreciate Matthew Kellady returning to the saddle. Will be on speed and is capable of giving a sight.
3rd Pick: MAGNUM FORCE (3)
Hasn't been far from the mark. Isn't ideally drawn but is capable of contending with even luck. In the mix.
4th Pick: PIONEER SEVEN (4)
Experienced campaigner who is well and truly out of form but career credentials demand respect in a race of this nature. Don't ignore.

RACE 2
1st Pick: THE BROTHERHOOD (9)
Hit the line well on debut and finds a winnable race here. Nice middle gate with options early and has strong claims.
2nd Pick: WIN WIN (10)
Hidden trials and blinkers on for debut run. Trackwork has been pleasing, monitor betting.
3rd Pick: WINNING SPIRIT (12)
Two-year-old that gets weight off his opposition here. Not tested late in only trial, another market watch.
4th Pick: JIUYI (1)
Mixing distances lately. Blinkers go back on, has the ability if he's sharp enough for the 1000m.

RACE 3
1st Pick: HOTSHOTS SLAM (12)
Lightly-raced customer who has the upside to improve. Has trialled well for his return to the races and will take beating with the lightweight.
2nd Pick: WATCH OUT BOSS (6)
Got into the winner's circle last start for the first time on the back of a freshen-up. This is tougher but must be respected with a repeat dose.
3rd Pick: SUPER POSH (1)
Has been struggling to win but will appreciate stepping back in grade. Needs the right breaks but is worth thought with even luck.
4th Pick: SIERRA CONQUEROR (2)
Has been knocking on the door. Well drawn to take up a forward position and is capable of giving a sight. In the mix.

RACE 4
1st Pick: HEALTHY STAR (6)
Performed well on debut when only beaten by a narrow margin. Will take benefit from that experience and will take beating with a repeat dose.
2nd Pick: PALETAS (7)
On debut. Has trialled well leading into this affair so keep safe. Monitor market/parade.
3rd Pick: BRUTUS (1)
On debut in Singapore. Has had one run in Australia and wasn't disgraced. Must be kept safe.
4th Pick: BOOM ALMIGHTY (3)
Has struggled to threaten but is worth including for the minor end at longer odds. Not the worst.

RACE 5
1st Pick: RESOLUTION (4)
Looks an improver here on debut in Class 5. Query running a strong 1200m but looks one horse in the race with some upside.
2nd Pick: LEO (3)
Likely leader that was just nailed on the post last start. Will take running down.
3rd Pick: THE ICEMAN (2)
Gets a nice run here off the soft gate. Been costly to follow but has claims in this.
4th Pick: SUPER EMPEROR (10)
Racing well. Gets the claim for Krisna Thangamani here and must be included.

RACE 6
1st Pick: LONELY BOY (7)
Nice effort in his Singapore debut and can lead here or race somewhere on the pace. Can give a sight.
2nd Pick: REVOLUTION (1)
Class runner forced to carry weight but on his best form, they will know he's there.
3rd Pick: SALAMENCE (4)
Back from the mile but the stable do it well (bringing horses back in distance). Include.
4th Pick: MR HOOPER (11)
Ran well in a solid Class 3 last time and is proven on the Polytrack. Must include.

RACE 7
1st Pick: ANGEL HALO (1)
Tough effort last start. Gets barrier 1 and Michael Rodd here. Can lead them for a long way. Top pick.
2nd Pick: CARNELIAN (2)
Backmarker suited up to 1700m and look out for her to be running on strongly late. Danger.
3rd Pick: MILITARY CHAIRMAN (3)
Blinkers on here and stays at the mile fresh. Trackwork has been solid, top hope with even luck from a bad gate.
4th Pick: SHANGANI (5)
In career best form. Things get harder now off a higher rating. Place preferred.

RACE 8
1st Pick: CIRCUIT MISSION (5)
Proven on the Polytrack and ran well in the EW Barker Trophy first-up. Carried more weight than he should have in that race and was wide the trip.
2nd Pick: PREDITOR (1)
Class runner. Rarely races on the Polytrack but with the blinkers on here, he must be respected. 
3rd Pick: YABADABADOO (4)
Ran out of his skin in the Singapore Gold Cup to finish fourth. In career best form and is hard to knock.
4th Pick: CLAUDIA'S BEAUTY (12)
Roughie that could improve here. Okay last time at weight for age and drops in weight to 51.5kgs from barrier No 2. Likes the Polytrack.

RACE 9
1st Pick: BOLD THRUSTER (3)
One of Singapore's leading sprinters returns after a disappointing run last start. Lit up the track in a recent trial and will take beating on best credentials.
2nd Pick: BIRAZ (10)
May not be ideally suited stepping back in grade but the set-up must be respected from this stable. Hard to ignore on recent efforts, so expect him to be a major player.
3rd Pick: SACRED REBEL (4)
Smart Polytrack sprinter returning. Well drawn to perform and must be respected on best efforts. Serious contender.
4th Pick: YOU ROKK (7)
Caused a massive boilover last start when winning at huge odds. This assignment is tougher but don't ignore.

RACE 10
1st Pick: BILLY BRITAIN (7)
Has been struggling to win but returns to the Polytrack surface and is off a very suitable rating. Trackwork has been good, so monitor market.
2nd Pick: MIGHTY EMPEROR (3)
Hard to knock on his last two efforts. Well drawn to get the run of the race in behind the leaders and can fight out the finish yet again.
3rd Pick: SO HI CLASS (6)
Interesting galloper who showed sharp improvement last start. Will appreciate the step-up in trip and is capable of contesting the business end.
4th Pick: LORD OF CLOUD (4)
Has been struggling to win but is never far from the mark. Capable of figuring on best efforts, so don't ignore.

RACE 11
1st Pick: GRAND CHOICE (3)
Big win last time. Sustained high speed throughout and they couldn't get him. Goes up in weight but could repeat the dose here. 
2nd Pick: ADMIRAL WINSTON (12)
Drew the wrong spot on resuming and was always uncomfortable. Should improve, respect here. 
3rd Pick: EFFORTLESS (2)
Gets back in the field and runs on. If they overdo it upfront look out for him late. 
4th Pick: YULONG GREEN (8)
Resuming. Trials have been good and Vlad Duric is booked. Respect off this rating.
