Verdict

DRAGON KINGDOM (9) went forward last start over 7f at this track and held on well for second, beaten 2.5 lengths. Should go forward from the awkward gate. In a suitable race and can build on that solid recent effort. GOLD CATCHER (2) showed good pace last time out and boxed on to finish a long neck from the winner in third at this track over 7f. Record at this track is strong. Will prove tough to beat. SEOBU CHAMP (1) is a distance specialist who missed the placings two starts back then ran a better race when she did her best work late and finished 1.4 lengths away in fourth last time out over 7f at this track. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. WONDERFUL LORD (6) was well in commission last time but ran below expectations when fifth and beaten 6 lengths over 7f at this track. Jo Jae Ro who has scored on him two times retains the mount. Best figures stack up.
