you would think so

the south africans jay peg & mourilyan touted to be coming over to oz later this year,,jay peg to tackle the cox plate & mourilyan the melbourne cup

Just read on another forum that the meeting will have full TAB coverage and be shown on both SKY and TVN

Yeah, thats good news

How come they don't show Singapore every week?

I am sure people are more interested in Singapore (due to Australian jockeys and former horses) than somewhere like Africa.

Good question Mr Quaddie, yeah how come? Maybe that don't race all year round, haven’t followed Sing myself.

Takeover Target a great chance in the sprint imo & should also do well when he goes on to Royal Ascot [3rd trip]

No Sacred Kingdom!?

I’m an Absolute Champion fan so it was good to read that the 2006 world champion rated sprinter won a recent Singapore barrier trial & his troublesome feet not a problem at the moment.

When do they declare the final fields?

looks like the final acceptors

Won the inaugural HK$3 million G2 Gome Sprint earlier this month. Apparently the KrisFlyer didn't exist when the Gome Sprint was originally scheduled. Sacred Kingdom is now taking a break & being set for Japan's Sprinters' Stakes, in October.

Singapore should be on every week.

Sprinters' Stakes, same race pencilled in for Apache Cat?
