Verdict

YEONGGWANGUI HOPE (5) is the one to beat after a clear second-run lift, finishing fifth at this venue and beaten five lengths by Smart Yulim after being run down late. His debut was far too plain, but the improvement was sharp and he has the right third-up profile to keep progressing. TWOTWO SPACE (3) has been fourth at both starts, was near the top of an open market last time and worked home well after giving away a start, making him the main danger. UNION FLASH (10) placed on debut over this trip at this venue, beaten over 11 lengths by Art Tree, but that race experience, light weight and immediate placing profile keep him firmly involved. OASIS SHACKLE (11) has been well beaten twice, yet he is race-fit third-up and has already seen around 6 ½f, so improvement into the placings is plausible.
