Malaysian racing makes its return to Selangor on Sunday, March 23rd, with an exciting 12-race card and highly competitive action expected throughout the day.

OUR SECRET WEAPON

Seven-year-old galloper OUR SECRET WEAPON looks primed to claim the major prize in the 1020m Class 4 contest at Kuala Lumpur on Sunday.

Having arrived with consistent form from Singapore, OUR SECRET WEAPON has maintained that standard since joining the in-form Nick Selvan stable. The gelding has recorded one win and three minor placings from six Malaysian starts, including a breakthrough victory in Class 4 company over 1200m on February 2.

A reliable beginner, OUR SECRET WEAPON is expected to be prominent from the outset in a race that lacks early pace. With two placings over Sunday’s track and distance, and the stable coming off a winning double last weekend, he should prove to be the one to beat.

LIM’S CRAFT

In the opening event, seven-year-old KHAO MANEE piques plenty of interest. Last seen finishing fifth at Kranji on Grand Singapore Gold Cup Day last October, he was forced to settle off the speed and attacked the line strongly late in a slowly run 1600m race.

Resuming after a 169-day break, he has trialled well and looks capable of making a winning start to his Malaysian racing career in Class 5B.

There was hidden merit in LIM’S CRAFT’s fifth-place finish at Supreme B level last time out. After overcoming a slow start and being urged early to stay in touch with the field, he finished strongly in the straight, closing to within four lengths over 1200m. With a clean jump, he is poised to make amends in Race 7.
