Verdict

BLUE DRAGON (1) is building towards a maiden win after minor placings at his last two runs, the latest when third over 1 ¹/16m at this track, beaten 2.75 lengths. Lim Da Bin stays on and although yet to win has been in the money on two occasions. Should be in the finish. BLACK SMILE (6) is a 15-start maiden but does look to be edging towards a win, the latest effort an encouraging second at this track over 1 ¹/16m after being prominent at the corner. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. SUBMISSION (3) finished third last start over 7f at this track, beaten 5 lengths. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run again. O P S TAP (7) was given time to settle from an outside draw last time then wound up strongly in the straight for an eye-catching third over 1 ¹/16m at this track. Tough to stop again.
