Verdict

BEOLGYO DESTINO (2) finished fourth two runs back at this track then improved last time out to score by 4 lengths as favourite after being in the firing line on the bend over 1 ?m at this track. Stepping up a level this time but on his best form he is one of the chief contenders. CHEONGSAN JILJU (3) jumped from a wide gate last start and finished 10 lengths away in fifth over this track and distance. Has a much better draw this time. Drawn to go forward. Leading contender. STING JET (5) resumes in a similar race to his last run three-and-a-half months ago when fourth, beaten 1.5 lengths. Has to be respected. WHITE CARLA (11) missed the placings two runs back then didn't do any better last start when 10 lengths away in ninth over 1 ?m at this track. Suitably placed so can turn things around.
