Verdict

KING BLACK (4) improved last time out, finishing 3 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 1m at this track after being prominent at the turn. Finds a suitable race and can play a major role. JEONGMUN SKIP (6) tackled the mile for the first time last start at this track and after looking a winning chance halfway down the straight he could manage only a minor placing. Should be poised just off the lead. Expecting a bold showing. SKYNEX (3) is a two-start maiden who placed on debut then could only manage seventh last start, beaten 11 lengths over 6 ½f at this track. Backmarker who keeps coming. Well placed and gets his chance to break through. WORLD TREE (7) was in contention on the bend and finished third last start over 1m at this track, beaten 3.5 lengths. Should be peaking. Placed to advantage and can run a bold race.
