GOING:

Class 2 Handicap 1800m

Track:   Rain (Max: 31)    

Taepyeong Hero should have enough pace to lead a low-pressure contest. TAEPYEONG HERO (7) ran below expectations last time at this track over 2000m, finishing fourth and beaten 7 lengths. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Expecting a bold showing. MANDAERO (1) is building towards a win with placings at his last two runs, the latest effort a third over 1600m at this track when beaten 2 lengths. This looks a nice assignment. MAGLE DAY (11) finished fifth two runs back at this track then improved last time out to score by a nose over 2000m at this track. No reason he cannot salute again. QUEEN TOP (10) was always well back last start at the first run of this campaign and never threatened, finishing eighth over 1800m at this track. Boasts a 100% top-three strike rate when second up. Should run well.
