Te Akau Singapore has 16 horses entered on Saturday 4 June at Kranji.

Following two wins last Saturday, Te Akau trainer Donna Logan moved into second place on the premiership table.

Training since 2018 in Singapore, Logan took over on 1 January from Mark Walker, who returned home to train the Te Akau team at Matamata.

Walker was Singapore Champion Trainer in 2015, 2017 (record 87 wins), 2019, and 2021 with 66 wins, also runner-up three times, third, and fourth.

5:30 p.m. R2 6 Rahotu (5 g Invincible Spirit - Insoumise) - Hakim Kamaruddin (a1); drew barrier 7 of 11 in $20,000 Maiden 1200 metres on turf and carries 56.5kg. Planning to go forward, he rates a top four chance.

6:00 p.m. R3 4 Eagle Eye (7 g Pure Prize - Miss Tessi) - Hakim Kamaruddin (a1); drew barrier 6 of 9 in $50,000 Class 4 1400 metres on turf and carries 54.5kg. He is a course and distance winner, can run good sectionals, and he presents a top three finisher.

6:30 p.m. R4 1 Hidden Promise (9 g Postponed - Promissory) - Fadzli Yusoff (a3); drew barrier 10 of 11 in $30,000 Class 5 1200 metres on turf and carries 56kg. He is better suited to a longer trip and is destined for Malaysian racing - one of two in the event for Donna Logan.

6:30 p.m. R4 5 Wednesday (4 g Super One - Shufetish) - Manoel Nunes; drew barrier 3 of 11 in $30,000 Class 5 1200 metres on turf and carries 57.5kg. With the top rider aboard, he has first four claims.

7:30 p.m. R6 1 Diamond Ring (5 g Super Easy - Donna Marie) - Fadzli Yusoff (a3); drew barrier 5 of 11 in $30,000 Class 5 1100 metres on poly-track and carries 56kg. A last start winner in the same grade, he enjoys a nice draw (5) and he rates top three prospect.

8:00 p.m. R7 7 Time Lord (7 g Guillotine - Mary Agnes) - Hakim Kamaruddin (a1); drew barrier 5 of 10 in $70,000 Class 3 1600 metres on turf and carries 55kg. He needs to improve to make his presence felt.

8:30 p.m. R8 10 Eastiger (7 g Magic Albert - Quite Astute) - Hakim Kamaruddin (a1); drew barrier 4 of 11 in $30,000 Class 5 1200 metres on turf and carries 52kg. He is racing well and he can post a first three finish - the first of a stable duo.

8:30 p.m. R8 11 Broadway Success (6 g Alamosa - Broadway Express) - Jerlyn Seow (a3); drew barrier 7 of 11 in $30,000 Class 5 1200 metres on turf and carries 47.5kg. He could figure in multiples if everything goes well.

9:00 p.m. R9 7 Sunday (4 g Delago Deluxe - Gentle) - Oscar Chavez; drew barrier 3 of 12 in $30,000 Class 5 1800 metres on turf and carries 53kg. He is a consistent individual, and his racing style suits this trip, he posted the fastest sectionals last start, and looks a top four proposition.

9:30 p.m. R10 4 Kermajack (4 g Kermadec - Kapala) - Hakim Kamaruddin (a1); drew barrier 2 of 9 in $50,000 Class 4 1400 metres on turf and carries 54kg. He is having his first start in Singapore, and while he has won over 1600 metres in Australia, he is using this race as a stepping stone to further.

10:00 p.m. R11 2Hadeer (6 g Savabeel - A Real Princess) - Jerlyn Seow (a3); drew outside barrier (12) in $70,000 Class 3 1200 metres on turf carries 54kg. He rates a top four contender with luck from the outside draw (12) - one of three entered by the stable.

10:00 p.m. R11 12 Reignite (4 g Sebring - Risk Aversion) - Hakim Kamaruddin (a1); drew barrier 7 of 12 in $70,000 Class 3 1200 metres on turf carries 52.5kg. A strong Class 4 winner last start, all his four wins have been on the poly so he will need to appreciate the turf surface.

10:00 p.m. R11 15 Brutus (5 g Rubick - Harvest Queen) - unfixed; drew barrier 3 of 12 in $70,000 Class 3 1200 metres on turf carries 54.5kg. Ballot three, he looks unlikely to gain a start.

10:30 p.m. R12 5 Deception (3 g I Am Invincible - Friday Hussy) - Jerlyn Seow (a3); drew barrier 3 of 12 in $50,000 Class 4 1100 metres on poly-track and carries 51kg. Up in class after his last start win, he enjoys weight relief, and rates a top four chance - o9ne of a stable trio engaged in the last.

10:30 p.m. R12 6 Charminton (3 g Charm Spirit - Sarzana) - Fadzli Yusoff (a3); drew barrier 6 of 12 in $50,000 Class 4 1100 metres on poly-track and carries 50.5kg. He is on his Singapore debut today, has trialled solidly, has shown ability and could figure in multiples with the light weight.

10:30 p.m. R12 7 Montana Flash (3 g Star Turn - Dukemore) - Hakim Kamaruddin (a1); drew barrier 8 of 12 in $50,000 Class 4 1100 metres on poly-track and carries 52.5kg. It's also his first start in Singapore, and will be an improver with the run but could figure in multiples.
