Verdict

HEUIMANG DANBI (5) went forward last start over 1m at this track and held on well for third, beaten 4.5 lengths. Likely improver with strong prospects. GLOBAL PRINCE (9) recorded a strong maiden win over 6 ½f at this track last time, getting there by 2.5 lengths. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Shaping up nicely and he is worth including. ENCORE (11) fought on well for third last start over 1m at this track, making it three minor placings in a row. Generally goes well here. Capable of a big run. DEIMOS (10) started this prep with a win then couldn't follow that up last time out when second over 7f at this track, beaten one length. In contention this time.
