I don't know Brock... he's such a good one and I wish you the best of luck and hope they all come home safe damnit. Bad memories with Singapore races for me and trying to get past that.

My pick to win is The Hornet. I just think that he will no matter how good your guy Presvis is.

Sentimental boy here is Pompeii Ruler who I know won't win but whatever.

If I were playing though? Yeah, The Hornet with Top Spin hitting the board...

Much more excited about the KrisFlyer.

Sentimental choices are the HK runners Sacred Kingdom and Inspiration (win it for Absolute Champion ). I'm a fan of most of these horses but i think if I were playing it I'd look beyond sentiment and the obvious (the brilliant Rocket Man) and go for one of the other very good locals.... I'm thinking Waikato or Capablanca, or maybe even Onceuponatime. All 3 should be at nice odds. Think I'll be happy no matter who wins this.

Lovely race... I said I'd never watch it again but i think I will after all.

Good luck to anyone playing.

(... and good luck to Ace Armada in R7).

... or maybe it's just absurd to try to beat Rocket Man... not sure.

Who do you like in the KrisFlyer, Brock?

The sprint is tricky little race. Im usually alright at coming to an opinion of local horses in these type of races, but Rocket Man has me struggling. He seems a classy horse but Im not too certain on that.At the price 2-1, Ill pass. Takeover apparantly wasnt eating right so ill pass on him at 2-1. I backed Sacred Kingdom who was a big price at 7-1 and Ill probably end up having a saver on Diabolical as well.

And if I win anything, It'll all go on my boy in the next race!!
