We open with a Class 5 on the Poly track where there look to be 3 main chances being IN BOCCA AL LUPO, SOUTHERN GLORY & KUBERA'S CHIEF who is the major market watch having not started for over 7 weeks. IN BOCCA AL LUPO has his foot right on the till clocking in 2nd his last couple & gets the services of Placais today. We spotted SOUTHERN GLORY running on from the back of the field last start, his previous run was also an improvement suggesting he could be close, no surprise to see him break through here. KUBERA'S CHIEF put in a very disappointing effort at his last outing which was most out of character, should he firm in the market we feel he can definitely play a role in the finish.

A winner at his first local start over 1200m his last couple (once over the same trip & latest out to 1400m) haven't been strong finishing & he takes another step up to 1600m today. We feel he may be a good lay opportunity in an open affair.

We're going to lean to the last start winner ZULU WARRIOR who won a Maiden over this distance almost 9 weeks ago, the form out of the race has been strong with 3 subsequent winners including POET'S RYKER who also goes around in this race however meets ZULU WARRIOR worse at the weights. We feel backing him the win & place markets is the best option.

It's a winable race for the 11yo KINGS CROSS who raced in consistent form last campaign & has at least won & placed on the Poly track which is more than we can say for many of his rivals. Should there be any market support whilst on the fresh side he should prove hard to beat... without getting carried away!

With the services of Michael Rodd from a good gate he just needs to find some sort of a position early & should that be the case he'll likely prove too strong for his rivals late. Definite watch on the ex Australian MAN OF MYSTERY who is having his first Singapore start & did win a recent trial in very easy fashion by over 3 lengths.

His last couple have been in stronger grade over longer trips however with a freshen up of over a month, Michael Rodd to do the steering & the positive that he's always strong to the line he looks more than ready to tackle these. Certainly not discounting LIM'S EVENT who does take a rise in grade for this however is only lightly raced & did won comfortably first up, without doubt will strip fitter for the run & likely to be almost at his peak here.

We've landed on the second up ZAC KASA who may have been just a run short first up in the same grade recently when clocking in 5th albeit being beaten just over a length, he stays at the same weight, draws a good gate & Michael Rodd takes the ride, fitter this time around he's a good chance of taking this one out. Looking for dangers there are a few, AUGUSTANO & BIRAZ have good figures however both are up sharply in the weights whilst YULONG XIONGYIN who is flying in easier grade also rises in weight however only slightly.
