Selangor Gold Cup winner returns to face Sports Toto Supreme A race test
ANTIPODEAN UNDER CHALLENGE

KUALA LUMPUR – The RM100,000 (S$30,400) Sports Toto Supreme Challenge Cup on Oct 13 appears to be the most exciting in the series since it was first run as Sports Toto Trophy in 2004.

The line-up for the Supreme A 1,400m set-weight event this year resembles a contest for one of the traditional big races staged by one of the turf clubs.

It has attracted the cream of the sprinters and middle-distance horses in the country headed by topweight Awesome Storm.

The 12-time winner by Phenomenons bounced back to form last start to win a Metro A event over 1,200m on Sept 21 after failing to lead all the way in the Selangor Gold Cup (1,600m) earlier that month.

At his latest win, Awesome Storm beat Gamestonks, who has 10 wins to his name and is rated 114, just three points below Awesome Storm.

Two-time Singapore champion apprentice jockey Jerlyn Seow, who rode the champion sprinter in the Selangor Gold Cup, will be back in the saddle.

Gamestonks inflicted Antipodean with his only defeat thus far in a Supreme A race over 1,300m in August, but skipped the Selangor Gold Cup as the "mile" trip is probably beyond him.
