Rhett Butler, Tangesh also catch the eye at Sungai Besi trackwork
With 12 races beckoning on June 22, racegoers would like nothing better than to get off to a flying start.
Rhett Butler in Race 1 and Tangesh in Race 2 could be worth some thought early in the day, split between the two Class 5 divisions over 1,150m.
Both gallopers tossed in decent training gallops on the morning of June 18.
The Nick Selvan-trained Rhett Butler loosened up with a spot of cantering before turning on the after-burners to run the final 600m in 39sec.
The three-time winner is plying his trade in lowly Class 5B, but his win over the Ipoh 1,400m on May 11 was noteworthy.
He came from third at the 400m mark to win despite drifting out over the concluding stages.
While the 1,150m does appear to be on the short side for the Charm Spirit four-year-old, he is not out of it.
At his debut on April 29, 2023, when he was under the care of Donna Logan at Kranji, he blitzed his rivals in a race over the 1,100m.
Rhett Butler can sprint. Come June 22, he could make the board – at a price.

Kohli, 36, fights an age-old battle: Talent v time
This is an old story. A story about talent, longevity and defiance. A story about how, for all the shining confidence of champions, time humbles them all. A story which starts by clarifying an untruth.
