Verdict

KING MASTER (3) steps up in trip after scoring last time by half a length over 6f at this track on September 28. Down in the weights this time so another big run is on the cards. DONGGANGUI STAR (11) settled well back then made some inroads and finished 10 lengths away in sixth last time out over 6f at this track four weeks ago. Tackles a longer journey this time. Solid top-three chance. HANMADIMALDO (10) is a consistent performer with two minor placings from three starts this prep. Continued the trend last time out when runner-up over 7f at this track after he was handy all the way. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. HAKSAN DAESE (2) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a seventh over 1 ¹/16m at this track. In the right race and should be about the money.
