2nd Pick: HOSAYLIAO (1) Performed well over the track/distance in this grade last start. Will appreciate the weight relief from apprentice Zyrul Nor Azman, so must be respected.

4th Pick: FREE FALLIN'(11) Can improve here second-up rising in journey. Monitor parade and market moves.

RACE 2

1st Pick: BRUTUS (1) Comes out of Novice grade where he ran very well to finish second. Did have no weight but this looks easier, hard to beat.
2nd Pick: PERFECT ME (9) Stylish trialler who warrants respect on debut. Time was only fair but looked to have more to give, watch betting.
3rd Pick: HEAVENLY DANCER (5) On debut. Trials have been respectable and from a good draw is a runner of interest.

RACE 3

1st Pick: ELITE REMARKABLE (1) Has been running good races in tougher company and will appreciate the drop in grade. Expect a bold showing yet again.
2nd Pick: ROCKET STAR (2) Was turned over as a short-priced favourite last start. Will take benefit from that experience over the journey and is capable of making amends.
3rd Pick: IMPLEMENT (3) Hard to knock on recent efforts. Needs the right breaks from a poor gate but is worth thought on best efforts. In the mix.
4th Pick: SO HI CLASS (4) Despite not winning, his last three runs have been great. Needs to find another gear but is worth thought for the minor end.

1st Pick: GLORIOUS VICTORY (8) Has improved in recent runs and is building towards a win. Will be strong late here and can finish over the top.
2nd Pick: TOBRUK (7) Forgive run last time where it nearly fell. 1800m would be some query but appears one- paced and can sit on the speed here.
3rd Pick: DESTINY CHILD (9) Hit the line okay at 1400m last time in the Open Maiden won by Amore Amore. Can measure up in this.
4th Pick: CODIGOS (6) All recent form is on the Polytrack but drops in weight here and is worth considering.

3rd Pick: GLOBAL KID (9) Just beaten by the in-form Threeandfourpence last start. Can race on the speed here and give a bold sight.
4th Pick: STAR JACK (3) Has been missing the start and settling back but if he did jump, look out for him here. Capable mile/middle distance horse.

1st Pick: ANGEL HALO (5) Draws a gate which he will be able to use to his advantage to be on speed. Marc Lerner knows him well, so expect a bold showing on best efforts.
2nd Pick: LAGO DE COMO (2) Showed improvement last start. Not an ideal set-up rising in journey but the move must be respected by the stable. Major player.
3rd Pick: SPORTSCASTER (4) Has been a frustrating commodity in recent times but finds conditions to suit. Capable of figuring with the right breaks.
4th Pick: SCOOTER (10) Finally got in the winner's circle for the first time last start. This assignment is tougher but must be respected for a repeat dose.

3rd Pick: ELITE CONQUEST (6) Has struggled to win in eight starts but has always shown ability. Worth thought on best credentials.
4th Pick: COMING THROUGH (5) Absolutely flying as of late. Well drawn to perform yet again and must be respected as a winning factor.
