Verdict

MUNHAK DAESE (4) is a promising type still in first campaign but off to a great start to career. Already a two time winner including last start when scoring by 1.5 lengths over 6 ½f at this track. Races well here and rates a top chance again. GEUNYANG GARA (7) was sent out favourite last time and scored by 0.8 lengths over today's trip at this track. Has a good record at this course and distance, including a win and two placings. Definite winning hope. CLUB Q (9) turned in a fine effort to win by 1.5 lengths at this track and distance last start in a nice progression on the first-up run. Must raise the bar but another win beckons. LADY FOX (5) did a great job to score by 3 lengths over today's course and distance last start in a far better effort. No reason she cannot salute again.
