Once again – like it was on Feb 12 – a $100,000 Kranji Stakes A race will grab the attention of racegoers. And once again – like it was not so long ago – they could be cheering themselves hoarse for a horse named Street Of Dreams. He was all-conquering...
On an overcast Tuesday morning, when some of Kranji’s best strutted their stuff, Street Of Dreams was among the cream.He oozed with form.So was stablemate Rocket Star and trainer Stephen Gray’s dual Group 1-winner Hard Too Think.Racegoers love it when an equine marvel shoots for the stars and this four-year-old fits the mould.And, to them, it is something to talk about over their coffee and toast.
Yes, he is on a roll and, once again, we will see him sent off as one of the top picks in that $100,000 race.Well, he seems to have recovered from whatever was ailing him at that last race, where he finished an uncharacteristic 15th in that field of 16. But we did see something good when he finished third behind Lim’s Kosciuszko in the Group 3 Merlion Trophy over the Polytrack 1,200m on Feb 4. Expect to see him build on that. His fine gallop seemed to suggest so.
Pacific Charm had Wong Chin Chuen doing the work from the saddle when running the 600m in 39.1 while Real Success ran out the trip in 37.8.A six-time starter at Kranji, he last greeted the judge on Oct 29, when beating a field of maidens over 1,400m.At seven, Real Success may be getting a bit long in the tooth, but he certainly knows his way around a racetrack.
