In-Form Trio Strut Their Stuff Ahead Of Hot Dash

Kong Fu Panda, Te Akau Ben, Platinum Universal in good nick

- Brian Miller

You have heard it said that "good things come to those who wait". Most times it does, though there is the odd time it does not.

The race card for the action coming up at the Selangor Turf Club on Feb 16 luckily adheres to the former category.

It is a 12-race programme and the 10th and 11th events look mighty interesting.

In the 10th, a top sprint over the 1,020m, the runners represent some of the best at Sungai Besi.

There is Pacific Vampire.

He has a rating of 89 - which is eight points higher than his stablemate Major King.

On paper, the Jason Ong pair look like the horses to beat.

But, narrowing down the Supreme B race to that duo would be a touch hasty.

There are others who look ready to challenge and three, in particular, stand out.

They are Kong Fu Panda, Te Akau Ben and Platinum Universal.

And, right now, they share a couple of things in common.

On the morning of Feb 13, all three were out on the training track for some serious cantering which would have served to keep them on their toes.

Then there was that other "thing", which they had in common.
