Verdict

ROOFTOP (8) is a talented colt who was well held last time out in the tougher won by Geudaemaniddamyeon over 6f at this track, beaten 17 lengths into ninth. This looks a more suitable assignment. WONPYEONG SKET (11) scored her maiden win five back and is poised to salute again after finishing in the money at the last three outings, most recently when second over 6f in stakes class at this track. Proving a good combination with R Maia with three straight placings. Among the leading chances. GEOSEN BIGMAN (1) was prominent at the corner and progressed nicely last start to finish a close second over 6 ½f at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Likely improver with strong prospects. WONPYEONG TOWN (9) finished third last time over 6f at this track, beaten a long neck. Will trim down following recent racing. Suitably placed so anticipating another strong effort.
