An encouraging return last start leaves the Ricardo Le Grange trained Cyborg well placed to return to the winner’s stall at Singapore this evening.

Due to contest the seventh event, Cyborg has displayed plenty of ability in his short career to date, winning three of his six attempts.

Off the scene for seven months, Cyborg hit the line well to finish fourth behind Aramco last start and has since trialled well in the lead up.

While arguably better over further, he is still a more than capable sprinter and although drawn a touch awkwardly, he gets in well at the weights.

The Ricardo Le Grange stable has been in good form and overall is striking at just shy of 20 per cent with Barend Vorster aboard.

Vorster has ridden Cyborg at every one of his starts in Singapore and hopefully can settle a touch closer to the speed this time around.

When assessing Timeform weight adjusted ratings, Cyborg rates highly on best form and while yet to fire second up previously, it was only one attempt, and it came against much tougher company.

If able to bring his ‘A’ game, Cyborg should prove hard to beat.

The Shane Baertschiger trained Aramco broke back into the winner's stall and looms as a major threat.

Previously trained by Team Hawkes in Australia [Old Name: Mawahibb], Aramco has raced in great order since transferred to Singapore, notching up three wins from six starts.

While failing to see out the 1400m two starts back, Aramco was back to his best when storming home to score easily over 1200m.

In one of the stronger Class 3 events we have seen in recent times, Aramco proved too sharp for Distinctive Darci, with close to four lengths back to third.

Successful in recording a new career peak (in Singapore), Aramco looks to be heading the right way and has somewhat shed his non-winner tag.

Like the face Baertschiger has kept him over 1200m and a repeat of his last start performance should see him right in the finish again.

The Michael Clements trained Darci Charmer hasn’t been far off the mark in recent efforts and has to be kept safe.

Although placing just once at his last six starts, he is certainly a talent when right and cannot be taken lightly in this company.

He too has trialled well in the lead up and shapes as one of the major players with Gerald Mosse aboard.

Of the rest the Cliff Brown trained Poseidon appears the next in line, as while safely held first up, he remains open to sharp improvement racing second up.

The drop back in grade will no doubt aid his chances and with Rodd aboard he has to be kept safe.

Good luck and happy punting.
