It's Gold Cup weekend and Friday's card has some attractive races including the G2 EW Barker.
Things get moving at Race 44, the SAAS Fee G3 over 1200m with a field of 7, but it seems to be between two of these - Lim's Lightning on 3.2 who won the Golden Horseshoe and 2 more since, and Bold Thruster who was the beaten favourite last outing and is on 2.5.
Race 5 is a Kranji A over 1100m on the polytrack and here we like Now You See for Lee Freedman and Olivier Placais - on 2.9 and impressed in recent trial, Cadet on 98.7 and Olympic Anthem on the same quote.
Race 6, The EW Barker is G2 for 3y+ over 1400m. Zac Kasa impressed in his recent win and we'll be hoping he continues in that vein - he's on 4.5. Mister Yeoh will probably start favourite and is on 3.0. We have a roughie here in Dance In The Wind on 21.10 - second up this prep - and we always have to put in Rafaello who is on 5.0.
Race 7 is another Kranji A over 1100m polytrack and here we are going for Sky Walk on 4.5, Constant Justice on 20.8, Autumn Rush 9.9 and Golden Sword 6.0.
We'll look at Sunday's card on the day.
