Verdict

CHOEGANG GOLD (6) clocked-in second behind Daeseong Star last time out at this track over 1 ¼m. Yet to miss the placings here in an excellent record which boasts six wins and three placings. Bold showing expected. YEONHUI HERO (10) was comfortably accounted for when third last time out over 1 ?m at this track, beaten 9 lengths after being in the firing line on the bend. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including a win and two minor placings. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot make amends. ARGO RICH (7) finished out of the money two starts back then he settled well back and was beaten 11 lengths when sixth in a 1 ?m contest at this track four weeks ago. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. DRONE KILLER (2) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1 ¼m at this track, beaten 7 lengths into eighth. Best efforts measure up so worth another chance.
