Winning Form share all of their best bets and tips Saturday’s racing coming your way from Kranji on 28 September 2024.
RACE 1 – Time: 06:30 | Class 5 Handicap – 1200m
Selections: 1/3/2
OTAHUHU has a key booking with Bernardo Pinheiro taking the ride. Gets the inside draw and will look to take up a forward spot early. These conditions will suit here. STAR EXPRESS drops back in class where he last won in June over this same course and distance. Gets a leading jockey on for the first time and looks well placed by the stable.
RACE 2 – Time: 07:00 | Maiden – 1200m
Selections: 3/1/2
BRAVO KID continues to run well but he has earned himself a professional place-getter name tag after three consecutive second placings. Draws well and will look a threat at the finish. LUCKY WARRIOR comes into this three-weeks between runs where he was bumped shortly after the start and overraced as a result. Small field and looks a key player here.
RACE 3 – Time: 07:30 | Class 4 Handicap – 1100m
Selections: 2/1/8
ELLIOT NESS enjoyed a big win last time out, sat outside the leader, Surrey Hills and blew his rivals away in a few strides. He’s come back bigger and better this campaign and looks to repeat that performance this week. Small field, one to beat. SURREY HILLS stayed on nicely last start behind Elliot Ness, should look to push forward from barrier one and could be a danger here. Apprentice Seow claims two kilograms.
RACE 4 – Time: 08:00 | Class 5 Handicap – 1000m
Selections: 2/4/3
CONDOR has been dropping down the ratings and finds himself in class five for the first time. He has finished behind some talented class four winners and expect strong betting support. LONHRO GOLD is a 1000m specialist who will get burning early from barrier nine. Queiroz has a terrific record on this old boy and looked sharp in his recent trial.
RACE 5 – Time: 08:30 | Novice – 1200m
Selections: 1/7/3
TOMMY GUN didn’t have things go to plan last start in class 4, sat up on speed, off a hot tempo and faded when coming into the straight. Should look to bounce back here. He’s had two recent trials which have been okay. CHEVAL PEGASUS was caught a long way back last time around behind Big Return, never came into the race and should appreciate the smaller field this week. Draws low for Bruno Queiroz.
RACE 6 – Time: 09:00 | Class 5 Handicap – 2000m
Selections: 3/6/11
EMPOWERING is looking to make it three straight wins in class 5, he showed great acceleration last start when flashing home defeating stablemate Shihab. He will find it harder this week but is in great form. FOREST GOLD was flying home last start behind Ben’s Champion over 1600m and now goes 2000m where he only had the one placing. CC Wong now takes the ride, and he had a recent trial on the 19th.
RACE 7 – Time: 09:30 | Class 5 Handicap -1200m
Selections: 2/4/3
WIND OF DUBAI is a last-start winner who showed a strong turn of foot. Visiting Aussie jockey Will Price has been booked and can go back-to-back here. MAY has just the one win to his name and has run some positive races recently without placing. Our leading apprentice should be able to position him up nicely from the draw.
RACE 8 – Time: 10:00 | Class 5 Handicap – 1700m
Selections: 4/2/9
SUPER BOWL lines up here with career-best stats over this course and distance with one win and five minors from nine starts. Leading stable and jockey combine well together. FRENETIC was given a peach of a ride by Curatolo, whipping around the field and catching them all napping to win well two weeks ago. Will settle back and look to finish off late yet again.
RACE 9 – Time: 10:30 | Class 3 Handicap – 1200m
Selections: 1/5/4
ENERGY BABY enjoyed a huge win last start in the same grade, had no luck in the straight and still had the acceleration to burst through late and win. Pinheiro stays on board and he obtains a perfect draw in three. The one to beat. RAVALLI is a progressive sprinter with plenty of ability against this opposition, he is looking to make it four straight victories but now goes up to class 3 for the first time in his career in Singapore. He relishes 1200m and should look for cover from barrier seven.
Race 10 – Time: 11:00 | Class 4 Handicap – 1200m
Selections: 3/1/4
LAST SUPPER had a tough run last start in the same race behind Ravalli, he got shuffled back after the start and was a long way off the leaders turning for home. He should bounce back here and be hard to beat. JIN SAKAMOTO produced a solid win last start, but didn’t handle the corner that well before kicking away at the 200m and never looked like stopping. In-form jockey Pinheiro stays in the saddle and draws perfectly in barrier four.
