Verdict

CHEERFUL BABY (5) sets the standard after backing up a narrow second with a Class 4 win at this track, beating Iron Samurai by just over a length as odds-on favourite. His record at this track and distance is a strong anchor, and the drop from 130lbs carried last start to 125lbs is another useful plus. SABAH LEGEND (4) is the main danger off a well-backed Perak win in NOV grade, where he beat Lucky Seventy-One by just under a length, and he has already won at this track and distance. STAR EIGHTY THREE (2) has not won this campaign but improved to finish fifth, beaten three lengths, and his one win and four places from five starts at the distance keep him right in the contest. MEGA FORTUNE (8) brings the sharpest upward profile after consecutive wins at this track, most recently scoring by two lengths from Typhoon in Class 4, and his lightly raced record gives him genuine scope to press again.

5	Built perfectly into this with a Class 4 win at this track, beating Iron Samurai by just over a length as odds-on favourite after carrying 130lbs. That followed a half-length second to Pacific Silver, so his form line is the most reliable in the race. Four wins and two places from nine starts at this track and distance, plus a good record with Rizuan Shafiq, make him the one they have to beat. 1st Pick 5 Cheerful Baby Jockey: Rizuan Shafiq Trainer: Tan Eng Tee Jerome J: Rizuan Shafiq T: Tan Eng Tee Jerome	90	-	-	-	56%

4	Returns after six weeks following a well-backed NOV win at Perak, where he beat Lucky Seventy-One by just under a length in a small field. That came after a big-odds sixth in Class 4 at Perak, beaten just over six lengths by Kong Fu Panda, so the latest run was a clear return to winning form. Already a winner at this track and distance, he has the profile to make a strong impact again. 2nd Pick 4 Sabah Legend Jockey: T See Trainer: Hy Cheng J: T See T: Hy Cheng	104	-	-	-	25%

2	Returns after five weeks off the back of a better fifth at this track, beaten three lengths by Gold Medal Rose after starting at generous odds. He was last in Class 2 company over 5f the run prior, but his broader profile is stronger than that: three wins and eight places from 20 starts, plus one win and four places from five at this distance. With Y Aify back aboard, he looks a genuine winning player. 3rd Pick 2 Star Eighty Three Jockey: Y Aify Trainer: Lim Woei Chet J: Y Aify T: Lim Woei Chet	68	-	-	-	9%
