GOING: SL

Class 4 Handicap 1200m

Track: SOFT   Rain (Max: 31)    

Plenty of pressure with Ikkeulim, Ever Glory and Sahara Khan leading the charge. IKKEULIM (11) has scored at his last two starts, most recently by 2.5 lengths over 1200m at this track as favourite. That continued the solid form this campaign, with two wins and three minor placings from six starts. Sure to go well again. PANGPANG DAERO (1) showed good early muster and fought on to finish second last start over 1200m at this track. Will take advantage of the good draw. Meeting a deeper field this time but he deserves plenty of thought. FOREVER GIL (10) was a long way back last start but hit the line well to finish fourth, beaten 3.5 lengths, over 1200m at this track. Can play a role in the finish. BLUE RAIN (9) was beaten 7 lengths into sixth over 1200m at this track five weeks ago. Suitably placed so can turn things around.
