On a bright and sunny Thursday morning at Kranji, the stars came out for a romp.
No, not the kind you see in the skies at night. But the four-legged kind. The same ones you drool over under blazing sunshine on the weekends.
There, in the midst of the 40odd runners spread over five hitouts, were horses such as Lim's Kosciuszko, Golden Monkey and Lucky Jinsha - all with ratings in the mid-80s to low-100s.
As expected, they were the focus of attention.
However, if the early risers at trackside were expecting to see fireworks from the stars of the morning show, it was a matinee idol who stole the spotlight.
Coin Toss, with a modest rating of 55, stood tallest among all and he did not even have to produce the fastest time of the morning.
He clocked 60.47sec when winning the fifth and final trial, while Lucky Jinsha broke through the one-minute barrier, running the Polytrack 1,000m in 59.09sec.
More about him later. Let us talk about Coin Toss. His was an inspiring trial.
