THIRD-TIME LUCKY FOR GOLDEN MONKEY?

Kranji Stakes A test to prep Fitzsimmons’ galloper for another tilt at Lion City Cup
-
Golden Monkey will line up in the $100,000 Kranji Stakes A race (1,200m) on July 7 as a final warmup, before he attempts to make it third-time lucky in the Group 1 Lion City Cup (1,200m) on July 28.
Now the second highest-rated galloper in Singapore after Lim's Kosciuszko, the Tim Fitzsimmonstrained gelding placed in the last two instalments of Singapore's premier sprint race, both times behind winner Lim's Kosciuszko.
Although the Kranji Stakes A race has only six nominations, with Golden Monkey as the highest-rated horse on 105 points, it will still be a good guide towards the Lion City Cup, with the Steven Burridge-trained Ghalib (103) also in the field.
On Aug 14, 2022, the son of Star Turn finished third in the Lion City Cup as a four-year-old with twotime Melbourne Cup-winning jockey Mark Zahra in the irons, but he had excuses not to finish closer to the Daniel Meagher-trained Lim's Kosciuszko.
