12.20 a.m. (Saturday) R3 2 COURT CASE - Shafiq Rizuan; the first of two starters for Mark Walker in this S$60,000 Class 4 1100m on the polytrack has drawn eight of 11 and carries 56.5kgs. He's in great form, being placed at each of his past four starts (3-2-3-2) and 1100m suits him - a top four chance.
12.20 a.m. (Saturday) R3 8 LADY IFFRAAJ - Manuel Nunes; the second of Mark Walker's duo has drawn well (4) and carries just 53kgs coming off a nice last start third, she looks ready to strike for the Fortuna team - a top four chance.

1.20 a.m. (Saturday) R5 4 EATON'S GOLD - Shafiq Rizuan; a hardy campaigner, he draws out (9 of 11) in the S$60,000 Open Benchmark 67 over 1000m on the polytrack, carrying 56.5kgs. He is an 8YO now and may need to drop down to an easier grade.

2.20 a.m. (Saturday) R7 3 KAM'S COMET - Manuel Nunes; a very capable galloper, he will jump from barrier three in this field of just nine runners in the S$100,000 Open Benchmark 97 over 1000m on the polytrack. With 56kgs and the services of the champion rider, he wears a tongue tie for the first time as he looked to have gotten his tongue over the bit last start - as a result, look for an improved effort.

1.50 a.m. (Saturday) R8 10 CLUTHA LAD - App s Anandan (a1); another hardy campaigner, this son of Thorn Park has been a great earner for his connections in Singapore, having cost just $36,000 and having earned over $300,000. He draws gate two of 12 in the Class 4 1600m on the polytrack and with the apprentice claim, carries only 50.5kgs. He getting on a bit in years now and might need an easier Class.
