Dream Alliance makes it a one-horse affair

Manoel Nunes guiding the Tim Fitzsimmons-trained Dream Alliance to an easy win in a barrier trial on May 7, gearing up nicely for the $1 million Group 1 Kranji Mile on May 18. When bad weather and some withdrawals reduced what was to be a two-trial morning to just a single hit-out on May 7, trainer Tim Fitzsimmons hit the trifecta.Yes, numbers did make the difference and, when all was done and dusted, the runner with the highest rating took out the trial in a canter.

Spirit Of Boom three-year-old Thunderstorm, with his rating of 46, took second while Avalanche had to settle for third.Disappointing at his last start in a Class 2 race when beaten by an almost identical margin in ninth place, the Into Mischief five-year-old was seemingly back in the groove. About 300m out, Manoel Nunes had Dream Alliance sitting alone in third spot – but rapidly gaining on the leaders.

Already a winner of five races from 19 races, his big miss came in the biggest race of them all – the Group 1 Singapore Gold Cup on Nov 11, 2023.His rider, Bruno Queiroz, tossed in an objection but it was thrown out.But, on the strength of his win at that trial, he seems to be getting his act together in time for his assignment in the Group 1 Kranji Mile on May 18.
