GOING:

Class 5 Handicap 1200m

Track: GOOD   Clouds (Max: 26)    

Excellent Tan should lead but there are a few other speedy types who can keep him honest. WONPYEONG GWANGYA (7) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 0.8 lengths from the winner in second over 1400m at this track after being in the firing line on the bend. Likely improver with strong prospects. EXCELLENT TAN (5) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1300m at this track, beaten 1.5 lengths after being in the firing line on the bend. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. YEONGUNG JARYONG (9) is back from a spell of 12 weeks. Closed last prep as a winner, taking out a 1300m contest at this track by 1.5 lengths. Ticks all the right boxes. JEONGSEONG VICE (4) is close to breaking through after three consecutive placings, the latest coming when second over 1200m at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time.
