He was adjudged to be about 87% fit for the Kranji A yesterday but still had no problems in establishing his dominance over the rest of the field.

Flying Fulton shadowed the champ until after they got round the bend and into the straight and he too was

left with a view of Rocket Man's backside going further away. Better Be The One ran third and Dittatore

fourth.

Rocket Man may have a trial or two before going to Japan - they are keeping an eye on his weight and

that will probably decide the program, but at least on television he look fantastic yesterday.

On Friday Arowana Dot Com achieved win 6 from 7 starts in the Open under apprentice Tengku Rehaizat

who handled his runner very well, and getting a winning margin of 4 3/4 lengths over Imacruiser with

Aradea third. The weight allowance for the apprentic jockey helped, but Arowana isn't an easy horse and

the young jockey showed calm and patience in rating the race.
