Verdict

SAMJEONG SPIDER (4) pushed forward and led throughout to score a 5 length win over 6f at this track last time. Down in the weights this time and should prove tough to beat. DDATTEUTHAN WIRO (1) resumed from a spell last start with a sound second over 7f at this track after being in the firing line on the turn. Meets a stronger field but he is good enough to take this out. GRAND KWAEMA (10) closed last campaign with three consecutive minor placings and is back today after a break of eight months. Should park just off the speed despite the draw. One of the main contenders. BITNARA (6) resumes. Was racing well immediately prior to the break registering three minor placings in a row, the latest over this course and distance. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Not to be discounted.
