Verdict

SHEESH (5) made it three wins on the bounce last time out when he scored by half a length over 1 ¹/16m at this track. Winning rider J Ikram retains the mount. Going up a level this time but he is good enough to play a major role. LIM'S PUNCAK JAYA (9) was in contention all the way and fought on for third last start over 1m at this track, making it three minor placings in a row. Has good early speed. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. STAR EXPRESS (7) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1m at this track, beaten 2 lengths. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. PACIFIC CHIEF (4) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a fourth over 1m at this track. Cannot be ruled out.
