Class 5 Handicap 1200m
TRICK SHOT (4) is the horse to beat with fitness, profile and set-up lining up better than most. He was safely held two back but improved to finish fifth at Busan last start, beaten just under four lengths after sitting close, and he now comes to his third run of the campaign with first-time blinkers and solid 1200m credentials. OASIS GIJEOK (2) resumes as the main danger, with the plain final run before a spell offset by an earlier COND A second as favourite and a 50% career placing rate. TOHAMSAN DRAGON (8) also resumes with a suitable 1200m base, having won or placed in both attempts around the trip, and the blinkers add interest. BURUI PYEONGHWA (11) has been well beaten twice since winning earlier in the campaign, but weight relief, the apprentice claim and two distance wins keep him in the minor-winning mix. |

Class 5 Handicap 1400m
BEST TIGER (2) brings the strongest winning profile after successive Busan victories, the latest a neck defeat of Dalbitwie after being well found in betting. His earlier five-length COND A win gives the form extra depth, and his record around 1400m reads well for this assignment. SEOGWI GREAT (9) is the main danger off a sharp last-start win at Busan, where she put the race away by two and a half lengths at odds; the concern is that it came straight after a heavy defeat, so she has to hold that level. OASIS KINGDOM (7) has the most reliable recent pattern, winning two back in COND A company before being run down late as favourite at Busan, and remains a strong winning chance if he repeats that form. JEONGMUN SKIP (5) was plain when favourite fresh, but his close COND A second over 1600m before the break keeps him in the mix as a place-leaning danger second-up. |

Class 4 Handicap 1400m
WORLD DANCER CAT (8) is the horse to beat after improving sharply to run second to Rich One over 1600m at Busan, and her 1400m record is a major positive with two wins and a placing from three runs around the trip. She was beaten as favourite, but the return to a proven distance and strong career profile give her the best overall case. SUPEX WORLD (11) resumes unbeaten after a dominant COND A debut win over 1000m at Busan, beating Tohamsan Boss by nine lengths as a short-priced favourite; 1400m is the unknown, yet the upside is clear. DOLPHIN KICK (4) brings winning form after putting six lengths on Yeoun at Busan and gets weight relief, with the older 1400m profile the main balancing point. SMART SHAMAL (3) has placed at his past two, including a two-length second to Seogwi Oreum, and shapes as a reliable place-to-win danger if he converts consistency into a stronger finishing blow. |

Class 2 Handicap 1800m
HEY BROTHER (2) is the runner to beat after a dominant Busan win, putting six lengths on Lime Tree and doing it with plenty in hand. His overall record is strong, he is proven at the distance, and the apprentice claim adds to a favourable profile. HONORED KHAN (10) resumes from a three-month break but brings reliable 1800m form, having finished second when last seen and won the start prior, so he looks the main danger if forward enough. WONDERFUL JONES (8) has to put a heavy last-start defeat behind him, yet his previous Busan win as favourite was decisive and his broader recent record says he can bounce back. WONDAEHAN KKUM (7) comes through two plain runs, but the class drop, weight relief and prior 1800m record give him a case to improve into the finish. |

Class 4 Handicap 1200m
TAMNA FIRST (2) is the one to beat after turning his form around with a strong Busan win, beating Runners High by just over a length after controlling the race and kicking clear. He has a proven 1200m profile and the winning rider stays aboard, which gives his latest performance solid follow-up appeal. JOY OF QUEEN (3) is the obvious danger, having won by five lengths at Busan after sitting handy, and her record around this distance is consistently strong. RUNNERS HIGH (7) keeps finding the frame and was close behind Tamna First last time, though he has to turn the tables after another minor placing. RIPPLES MARINE (10) brings a different profile, having won by seven lengths at Busan after a sharp prior fourth, and that dominant latest run gives her genuine place-to-win claims if she holds that level. |

Class 3 Handicap 1200m
WORLD BLUE PIN CAT (9) brings the most reliable recent form, having run second at Busan at her past two starts over 1400m, first beaten two lengths on soft ground and then beaten three lengths behind Clearly Winner. Her career profile is strong, Jo In Kwon knows her well, and while the 1200m record is not as compelling as her overall figures, she still sets the standard. GREAT TOP (10) is the main danger, with his latest third behind Super Aero backed by a strong 1200m record and a proven partnership with Song Keong Yun. BEOLMA BROWN (4) has not been close enough in two recent 1400m runs, but the class drop, return to 1200m and rider familiarity keep him right in the winning mix. BLACK SPRING (11) has to lift on his past two Busan runs, though the apprentice claim, gear angle and previous 1200m wins give him enough to be treated as a genuine place hope. |
