Quality sprinter PACIFIC VAMPIRE looks attractively placed to capture the RM62,000 Tabcorp Trophy over 1200m at Selangor Turf Club this Sunday.
The son of Impending has rediscovered his best form in recent months, stringing together a consistent run of results with two victories and two placings from his last five appearances. At his most recent outing, he chased home Group 1 winner ANTIPODEAN in a strong Class 1 event, displaying his trademark tactical speed and determination right to the line. That performance confirmed he is back near his peak.
With conditions in his favour this week, PACIFIC VAMPIRE appeals as a genuine winning chance and shapes as a major force in the race. His sternest opposition looks set to come from NOAH KHAN, the reigning G1 Tunku Gold Cup hero who thrives at this level, and the ever-consistent BRANSOM, who rarely runs a bad race. Punters can expect a keenly contested affair, but PACIFIC VAMPIRE appears primed to strike.
