Verdict

KING BLACK (9) returned to winning form as favourite last start, scoring by 0.8 lengths over today's journey at this track. Has a good record at this course and distance, including a win and a placing. Rates highly and should go well. YEOUN (4) made progress last time out, finishing 7 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 7f at this track after being prominent at the corner. Has her share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. WORLD GOAT (6) scored his maiden win here last time out over today's trip, getting the decision by 6 lengths. Winning rider Park Jae I stays aboard and he is definitely worth including. CARAT KING (7) ran below expectations last start, finishing ninth and beaten 10 lengths at this track over 7f. Well placed to atone.
