Verdict

HEUIMANG DANBI (8) is in winning form after scoring as favourite last time out by one length over 6f at this track. Has a decent record at this track with two wins and three minor placings from 10 starts. Can go on with it. WIN WIN (7) put the writing on the wall last start when he was in the firing line all the way and was beaten just half a length into second over 6f at this track. Looks well placed so expect another big run. GOLDEN EMPIRE (1) could only manage 16th two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 7f at this track, beaten 2.75 lengths after being prominent at the corner. Looks well placed so expect another big run. KYUNGNAM DRAGON (5) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when fourth over 6f at this track. Well placed and can run a better race.
