Singapore sprint meeting notes and racing highlights
The year’s Singapore sprint meeting saw W. E. B. Ross riding multiple winners including Phono and Hatteras as the course softened by rain. James Nicholas previously handled much of the consignment, with a strong show across events like the Singapore Stakes and Clit Cup. The report also touches on official duties and a broader debate over jump designs at major courses, referencing Sydney Referee observations on Aintree, Liverpool, and Melbourne courses.
