Dream Alliance in last Malaysian feature but Pacific Warrior is out
S'PORE PRESENCE IN PIALA EMAS

KUALA LUMPUR - Singapore racing may have ceased to exist since Oct 5, but across the Causeway, the Selangor Turf Club's biggest race day will bring echoes of the once-thriving industry on Dec 1.

Former Kranji stayer Dream Alliance makes his Malaysian debut in the last feature on the Malaysian racing calendar, the RM250,000 (S$75,500) Group 1 Piala Emas Sultan Selangor (2,000m).

The final leg of the Club's Triple Crown Series is the blue riband for the top stayers in the country.

The first and second leg, the Group 1 Tunku Gold Cup (won by Cheval Blanc) and the Group 1 Selangor Gold Cup (won by Antipodean) were run in April and September respectively.

Dream Alliance could have had an ex-Kranji buddy in Pacific Warrior, who was filed as the first Malaysian entry for his new trainer Jason Ong, but was withdrawn on veterinary grounds.
