He has the record breaking apprentice aboard and from a good barrier against a moderate field he can finish in the first four - one of two in the race for Te Akau.

11.20 p.m. R1 9 Mala Mala (4 g Any Suggestion - Waitui Belle) - Corey Brown; drew barrier four of twelve in the $35,000 Maiden 1200 metres on the poly track and carries 52.5kgs. Having had three trials since a long layoff, he comes in with a light weight and could run in the first four.

11.50 p.m. R2 2 Falcon (4 g Falkirk - Grand Princess) - Harry Kasim; drew barrier one of twelve in the $65,000 Initiation Stakes 1200 metres on the poly track and carries 56.5kgs. A former Kiwi having his first start in Singapore, he could prove a sneaky place chance on debut - one of three in the race for Te Akau.

11.50 p.m. R2 9 Catch Me Great (3 g Circular Quay - Catch Me Deputy) - Corey Brown; drew barrier seven of twelve in the $65,000 Initiation Stakes 1200 metres on the poly track and carries 56.5kgs. He has shown good ability at the trials and with a bit of luck in running appears a top four chance.

11.50 p.m. R2 12 So What (3 f Saperavi - Zorina) - Lisa Allpress; drew barrier five of twelve in the $65,000 Initiation Stakes 1200 metres on the poly track and carries 50.5kgs. She has trained on nicely since her debut run, carries a light weight and wears blinkers to aid her focus.

12.20 a.m. (Saturday) R3 9 Single Act (5 g Bachelor Duke - Consumer) - Lisa Allpress; drew barrier one of ten in the $60,000 Class 4 1700 metres on the poly track and carries 52.5kgs.

12.50 a.m. (Saturday) R4 8 Select Gathering (6 g Choisir - Naturally) - Lisa Allpress; drew the outside barrier of twelve in the $38,000 Kranji D Stakes 1200 metres on the poly track and carries 56.5kgs. Ridden positively from the wide draw, he will require some luck in running.

1.50 a.m. (Saturday) R6 1 Zac Heaven (7 g Danbird - Forette) - Razali Zawari (a3); drew barrier four of twelve in the $38,000 Kranji D Stakes 1200 metres on the poly track and carries 55kgs. A very consistent performer, his chances are best suited by an uncontested lead - one of two in the race for Te Akau.

1.50 a.m. (Saturday) R6 8 Fiscal Wings (6 g Fusaichi Pegasus - Cashier) - Hassan Amin (a4); drew barrier six of twelve in the $38,000 Kranji D Stakes 1200 metres on the poly track and carries 52.5kgs. A rough place chance, he may need a drop back in class to prove a genuine contender.

3.20 a.m. (Saturday) R9 6 Bazinga (7 g Fastnet Rock - La Campanella) - Hassan Amin (a4); drew barrier six of ten in the $60,000 Benchmark 67 1000 metres on the poly track and carries 50kgs. Not far away from dropping back to Class 4, it is never a surprise for him to finish in the money.

Sunday Oct. 5

6.20 p.m. R2 10 Regal Red (3 g Shinko King - Red Carrera) - Corey Brown; drew barrier ten of fourteen in the $75,000 Restricted Maiden 1200 metres on the turf short course A and carries 53kgs. Prepared by Te Akau NZ, he makes his debut. From an awkward gate, the aim is to give him a good experience and be finding the line - one of two in the race for Te Akau.

6.20 p.m. R2 13 Fun House (3 f King's Chapel - Sea Rhythm) - Lisa Allpress; drew barrier six of fourteen in the $75,000 Restricted Maiden 1200 metres on the turf short course A and carries 51.5kgs. She has trained on well since her debut sixth, but meets a strong field and may require more ground to threaten.
