MY - Selangor Turf Club - Race 1

THE WILD CHIEF (2) has the strongest recent profile, having won by three lengths at this track two starts back before finishing fourth to Leisbobo, beaten just over two lengths. His 7f record is deep, he has two wins and five places from twelve starts at this track and distance, and the J Ong stable is a further positive. KHAO MANEE (7) beat him home in that same latest race when third as a well-supported favourite, beaten just under two lengths, so that line ties the two key chances closely together. BANKER'S PAIR NINE (6) brings winning form, having scored from Iron Ruler at this track last start, and his record with G Farhan gives that performance substance rather than making it look a one-off. NAJWAN (10) disappointed as favourite last week when only second last, but the margin was three and a half lengths, he gets weight relief, and his strong record with Oscar Chavez keeps him in the winning mix if he sharpens up quickly.
