GOING: N

Class 2 Handicap 1800m

Track: GOOD   Clouds (Max: 37)    

Reasonable tempo with Mighty Jjang probably leading but a few others should keep him honest. DRAGON BULPAE (8) has scored at his last two starts, most recently by 1.75 lengths over 1800m at this track. That continued the good form this campaign, with two wins and two minor placings from six starts. Can measure up again. GIANT PUNCH (1) finished fifth over 1800m at this track at his most recent appearance on May 4. Has ability and should be right in the finish. EAST WEST (2) was prominent from the outset and fought on for third last start over 2000m at this track, making it two minor placings in a row. Finds a suitable race and can play a major role. QUEEN TOP (5) is back from a spell of three months and does go well when fresh, including a win to launch last campaign over 1600m at this track. Can make her presence felt while fresh.
