GOING: G

Class 3 Handicap 1400m

Track: GOOD   Clear (Max: 33)    

Pace looks sure to be genuine with Proceed and Diana matching motors, closely followed by Shine On Me. PROCEED (1) scored a commanding victory at this track over 1800m at his latest appearance on May 4. Expect him to play a major role. SHINE ON ME (7) settled well back from a wide draw last time then wound up strongly to finish fifth over 1200m at this track. Will drift back but is going to be hard to hold out. DIANA (3) is back at the races for the first time since May 25. Worth noting she filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1200m at this track. Definite top-three chance. GWANGCHIGI (6) finished seventh over 1600m at this track at his most recent appearance on May 17. Lines up today for the first time for trainer Jung Haback. Among the better hopes.
