General Command, Ejaz and Ghalib will run the small field along at a decent tempo. GHALIB (2) is racing extra well. Scored on the all-weather two back then finished third, beaten 1.4 lengths, over 1200m at this track at the latest appearance four weeks ago. Manoel Nunes who has scored on him six times retains the mount. The testing material. Singapore Derby winner GOLDEN MONKEY (1) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when third over 1600m in the SGG1 Kranji Mile at this track when he came with a powerful finish. Finds the right race this time and can get the job done. EJAZ (6) scored last start by 1.3 lengths on the all-weather over 1100m. Form on turf is strong boasting four wins from eight starts. One of the leading contenders. SO HI CLASS (5) finished third two runs back at this track then improved last time out to score by half a length over 1800m at this track. Likely to be in the finish again.
