Verdict

SEONGSIL DREAM (1) has been freshened up since a disappointing fifth over 1m at this track five weeks ago. Best form is good enough so worth another chance. OASIS WICKY (3) progressed nicely last time out to finish just a nose from the winner in second over 6f at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. CHAMP SONNY (5) was safely held when second last start over 7f at this track, beaten 6 lengths. That followed a good first-up win at this track. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. TIGER MONSTER (8) has been in the money at his last couple of runs, the latest when third over 7f at this track. Has a decent record at this track. Too good to ignore.
