Verdict

WORLD DRAGON (1) could only manage 15th when returning from a spell last start over 1 ¼m at Seoul, beaten 40 lengths. Has a strong record this course, scoring at four of seven starts. Expect a bold showing. TOP FIRE (3) is building towards a win with placings at his last two runs, the latest effort a third over 7f at this track when beaten 1.5 lengths. Good record at this journey with four wins and seven minor placings from 16 starts and is sure to go well. B.J. CHIEF (12) is back at the races for the first time since June 7. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 1m at this track. Among the better hopes. PERFECT ACTION (10) comes here following a win over 6f at this track a month ago, getting home by 3 lengths. Has a win and one placing at this journey from three starts. Serious contender.
