New Zealand galloper Spin Around has arrived in Singapore in preparation for a start in the Group 1 Singapore Airlines International Cup on May 18.
Despite his plane being almost three hours late Spin Around handled the journey to Singapore without a hitch.
The Ardmore-trained stayer has strong credentials for the race being the winner of the Counties and Avondale Cups this season.
He was third at his most recent start in New Zealand under a big weight of 60kg and over an unsuitable distance of 1600m.
New Zealand jockey Gavin McKeon will have the mount on Spin Around in the Singapore Cup. Sir Slick is New Zealand's other representative in the feature event. He covered two rounds of the track at Kranji on Sunday morning.
