GOING: G

Class 5 Handicap 1800m

Track: GOOD   Clouds (Max: 22)   True  

Strong early pace from Yongbi Star, Sprit Fighter and Hunter Dragon, with Seogwi Chukje and Top Friend on their heels. HUNTER DRAGON (8) raced on the speed last start and battled on well but found one better over 1600m at this track. Yet to break through this time in but hasn't been far away, with two placings to his name. Should be in the finish. TOP FRIEND (3) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 2.5 lengths when fifth over 1600m at this track four weeks ago after being prominent at the bend. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. NALA (6) ran above expectations and got up for second at long odds at her latest appearance at this track over 1600m. Good signs last time and worth consideration. QUEEN OF JOY (5) missed the placings two runs back then did well last start but found a couple better over 1400m at this track, beaten only 1.5 lengths. Nicely placed to feature in the finish.
