Three foreign horses have
withdrawn from the upcoming internationals in Singapore on May 16.
CHINCHON from France and SUPER SATIN from Hong Kong have pulled out from the
A$3m Singapore Airlines International Cup while English sprinter TOTAL
GALLERY will not be taking part in the S$1m KrisFlyer International Sprint.
A shift in campaign focus was essentially the reasons given by connections
for the withdrawals.
Connections of the French-trained CHINCHON decided against making the trip
after a disappointing sixth in the Group 1 Prix Ganay (2100m) on May 2 while
trainer Caspar Fownes stated that SUPER SATIN’s owners would rather rest up
and then concentrate on the Group 1 Champions & Chater Cup (2400m) on May
30.
After TOTAL GALLERY ran sixth in the Group 3 StanJames.com Palace House
Stakes at Newmarket on May 1, connections have decided to steer him towards
five-furlong races at home instead, namely the Group 2 Temple Stakes in late
May and the Group 1 King’s Stand Stakes in June.  |
