Kranji Mile S1 - 5, 18/05/2024, Saturday Post Time 16:35
1 |
Lim’s Kosciuszko |
Local champion who has been exceptional in two runs back since his 9th to Golden Sixty in the LONGINES Hong Kong Mile. Chases back-to-back Kranji Mile wins and is the one they all have to beat. |
2 |
Golden Monkey |
Ultra-consistent galloper who is yet to defeat Lim’s Kosciuszko in the five times they’ve gone head-to-head. Enters the Kranji Mile in top form and is expected to be fighting out the finish. |
3 |
Super Salute |
Former top four-year-old who has been in okay form this year. Enters the race second-up and has what it takes to finish in the money. |
4 |
Invincible Tycoon |
Comes into this race fifth-up off a series of promising runs. Last seen running on strongly behind Lim’s Kosciuszko, three lengths off in fifth position. |
5 |
Street Of Dreams |
Former boom horse who has not won for over 400 days now and was off the scene for a long while through injury. Had excuses last start, racing wide, but was a close runner-up twice at G3 level prior. |
6 |
Pacific Emperor |
Yet to win in six starts this year and seems to have found his mark. Unsuited at level weights and faces a tough task. |
7 |
Dream Alliance |
Has a swift turn-of-foot under the right race shape and will relish any rain about. Has the services of fly in jockey Mark Zahra and looms as a serious contender. |
8 |
Cavalry |
Showed plenty of ability last year before an enforced lay off due to a bleed. Bounced back to his winning ways last start and looks likely to measure up here. |
9 |
Tiger Roar |
Former top-liner who was off the scene for about 18 months before resuming in February. Raced second-up in March but has been rested since and is first-up into this race. |
10 |
Raising Sixty-One |
Has been placed in his last two starts, beaten a neck to Cavalry most recently. Set weights is against him and others are preferred. |
