Horse Racing In Singapore (Selections – updated on 12 / Aug / 2023)

13th August 2023 (Race 1 Starts at 12.00noon SG/HK Time (+8 GMT)

Winner of races in Singapore will be recording a history for himself. It can be a valuable experience and something money cannot buy in future.

Getting photos and videos of your winning in the Singapore horse racing will be a unique historical photo of you at the winner’s circle.

Sadly, It’s a sure to be gone thing here. Horse owners are also going to have new plans for their interest in horse racing. Some will move their horses to Malaysia, Australia, or New Zealand.

Few will give up and ‘hang their boots’. Some will decide to stay low and sell their horses. They are worried if the horses are not sold later or unable to go to Malaysia (due to age of horse – import requirement set), they have to be responsible for the horses fully and that time they imagine will be problematic situation for horse owners. But I do believe the authorities will help out and provide solutions.

In any situation, when there are problems.. there will be opportunities. Currently there will be horse owners selling their horses at an attractive price. Good horses may be sold at below market price and that will be an opportunity for you.

If you are interested in getting your hands on horse ownership, kindly send me a text and will get back to you soonest.

3rd JUNE 2023 – Singapore

Horse Racing In Singapore

Horse racing Selections by author of this site, generally based on recent or latest last run.

Horse racing can be unpredictable. Normally in the Classes 5 races, as this horses are there in this Class as it is due to their low strike rate and low rating points. Horses in the better classes are more reliable and predictable. Unfortunately most of the horses are in the Class 5 and takes up to 60 to 70% of our weekly event.

This can sometimes be interesting as you can see horses of , 8, 9, and 10years old seems to be competing with younger horses. Young horses are racing in that class as many horses takes time to get themselves ready to be competitive. This can be due to many reasons.

Older horses which races in the Class 5 races can be very capable in their prime age of 4,5,6years old. They are slower as they gets older hence, they have dropped in points and able to be competitive at this Class.

This is my selections:

Enjoy Your Weekend!

7 likely Reasons race horse owners in Singapore lost money.

7 likely Reasons Why race horse owners in Singapore lost money.

Don’t think for a second that buying a racehorse is your path to riches and an early retirement. In fact, more often than not owning a racehorse is a money-losing venture.

This is a game where money invested should be from spare cash which you can afford to lose in any game for the fun of it.

The pros in the business invest in hundreds of horses, with the hope that a few hit it big and their profits make up for all of money losers.

An economical way to success is that you cut short all the learning curve by taking advantage of the experience or leverage on knowledgeable person.

After more than 30 years in this horse racing industry, as a race horse owner and a manager to a few race horse stables, I like to share you my simple view on what I saw happening in Singapore horse racing industry, not as a gambler but as someone who taking part in buying, planning and dealing with both horse owners, and all connected to preparing for races.

I saw many horse owners failed and this can be a topic to learn from.

Listed here to the best of my knowledge are reasons for unsuccessful horse ownership in the Singapore horse racing.

  1. No actual capital to start with. Some may have too little money and hope for miracle to happen. As you know that this game is used to be called ‘sports of kings’, but the good thing is that you don’t have to be a king, but at least have the idea of the spare cash you need to buy a good horse, which can cost easily from $50,000 and more. Some good bred horses can fetch from $100,000 to $150,000 – which I don’t suggest you to spend more than that amount as the stakes money here is not up to that kind of horse.  
  2. Buying a low quality or no quality race horse. Some opt to look for cheap horse. You can buy cheap horse if you don’t have any intention to see your horse winning. Buying a no quality horse will disappoint you. You end up paying training bills and probably you don’t have a chance to enjoy any return of your investments. Please also take note, that buying an expensive horse does not guarantee your success. Horses are still animal. But history says good horses come from good family bloodline of winners.
  3. Overlooked the on-going cost. Buying is easy, it is a one time invoice settlement, but maintaining it is the hardest for most. This, you need to maintain an annual sum ranging from $40,000 to $50,000 per year to maintain a race horse for training and up keeping. Any kind of race horse you buy, the on-going cost is the same. So, a smart move is to buy a quality horse, and you can have more fun.
  4. Appoint the right trainer. This is another important key of success to horse ownership investment. My recommendation is to get your horse to a trainer that is capable and having interest to take care of your interest. You are the boss attitude. Talk to your trainer and get regular feed back from him of progress. Today, the trainer and his team can easily take videos of your horse in training. From these videos feed back you can see if your horse is progressing or need more time to settle to the heat and humid conditions of Singapore.
  5. No Planning. After buying and appoint a trainer to train your horse, it is good to sit and plan with your trainer, or work out a strategy with your trainer. Planning can only be successful if it is carried out accordingly. You need a good team that work. You are the boss, the team carried out to the best of their ability for good of your horse racing career. This usually need to be reviewed from time to time. As horses may not race or progress according to our expectation and genuine feedback is important from the team. If you skip this process, you end up no direction and wasting of time and of the potential chances your horse may have.
  6. Uncontrolled gambling habits. This can be a cause of failure. The easiest way to lose money is to bet on horses on every race of the day. Race 1 to Race 12. The data says, favourites can have a success rate of about 30%. This means the public will lose 70% of the favourites horse of the day. That is the law of average, you should be aware of this. You should control the urge to the thrill of betting. I saw too many riches to poor, and many sad stories in horse racing betting. I recommend you buy a good horse and enjoy him winning the stakes money. Then again I never know any racehorse owner who never bet on horses. Here, at this point I was reminded with a horse called ‘SMART BET’ may be you can think of a way from this nicely named horse. He is a Champion, trained by a friend, now a ex-trainer in Mohamad Yusoff.
  7. Keep horses without any ability. Many race horse owners are caught with this. They just keep and maintain lower class (Class 5)horses or injured horse. This is a trap for horse owners and best for you to be aware of this. If the horse is not up to Class 3 or better in Singapore, you be losing money. Cut loss and sell it away. If not you will loss more. Give it another chance to have another career elsewhere.

Certainly there are more reasons than these mentioned above. As the horse racing involves too many people in between and just imaging the other issues that may arise from dealing with people. There are list of people problems in itself. Any way LUCK is one of the Important in Horse racing, and hope we have good luck when working together! As we have been working hard and usually hardwork can bring GOOD LUCK. Thank you!

23rd April 2023 SINGAPORE

Picking A winner at the parade ring

Watch the parade.
Before each race, the horses “parade” in front of the grandstand as part of their
warm up. Best place to start your observation is at the back of the grandstand, where horse owners, trainers jockeys, were discussing. Sometimes they just be there without any serious talk. They just talk something else while waiting for the signal for the jockeys to mount. Observing body language can be a valuable tool in picking a winner. Other than looking at humans, it is a good time to look at the stars of the races. Look for a horse with a shiny coat, nicely arched neck, spring in his stride and alert.

Horses that are sweating profusely, bucking or exhibiting other nervous behavior may expend too much energy before the race to produce an optimal effort.

Have a great time and enjoy!

Selections for Singapore’s Sunday races

GOOD LUCK and Have A Great Sunday!

1st April 2023 – Kranji Singapore

Horse racing in Singapore is going on Saturday 1st of April 2023. 1st April can be a tricky day as it is commonly a joke day in APRIL FOOLS DAY!

I don’t know much, why it is called an April Fools Day. If you have some time and idea why it was called an April Fools day.. Kindly let us have more information.. Every time this day showed at the calendar it will remind me of a funny day when I was growing up.

Let’s talk about horse racing in Singapore now. Time flies, it’s going to be another interesting day at Kranji. The main event for the Saturday’s meeting is going to be at RACE 10, a Class 2 race over 1400meters on the turf short course.

2 Apprentice jockeys will be on the first 2 favorites in that race. Apprentice Jockey (-1kg) with a kilo claim, will be riding Horse No.9 called SILENT IS GOLD. And Champion Jockey M. NUNES will be on the hot favorite horse no. 6 in SUPER SALUTE.

Both horses have strong chance and may the faster and lucky horse wins. Yes, in horse racing Luck is an important factor. Looking into that race, I hope SUPER SALUTE will win as he have got a better rider. Both horse is a strong and fighting spirit horse, but a champion jockey is the plus factor that may make him lucky.

Any way this is my selections and best wishes:
