Kuala Lumpur : Jan 28, 2025

In terms of quality, this year’s edition of the 1600m Chinese New Year Prosperity Cup has attracted one of the best lineups witnessed on a Malaysian race track for many years. No fewer than eight Group One winners will be contesting the RM 100,000 feature on Friday.

The best performed runner from last season ANTIPODEAN will be searching for immediate atonement following his recent defeat when produced first up a fortnight ago over 1200m. The four year old’s only attempt at the mile previously resulted with a victory in the G1 Selangor Gold Cup.

Last year’s Singapore Gold Cup winner, SMART STAR makes his Malaysian debut along with group place getter MR BLACK BACK. Both candidates weren’t overly taxed in the same trial recently and are sure to be worthy opponents against the seasoned locals.
