Verdict

QUEEN WIND (2) continues to race well with a win two back at Busan before finishing 2 lengths away in second last time over 6 ½f at Busan. Well placed and worth another chance. HANEUL POKPUNG (5) was a winner last time over 6 ½f at Busan and re-unites with Masa Tanaka who steered on that occasion. Will appreciate the big weight drop so he is right in contention. DRAGON DEVIL (8) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest at Busan over 6f. Can measure up again. DEMETER (11) has put together back-to-back placings after scoring three back at Busan, most recently beaten 4.5 lengths into third over 6f at Busan. Hard to leave out.
