GOING: S

Class 2 Handicap 1200m

Track: SOFT   Rain (Max: 17)    

Saenae Queen, Eoseomareulhae and Trotting Riley to match motors but there will be plenty of pressure from other quarters. EOSEOMAREULHAE (4) is a handy galloper who was 0.8 lengths from the winner in second when resuming last start over 1200m at this track. Won at his only second-up run so there is plenty of scope for improvement. RAON THE JET (3) resumed over 1200m at this track last start and was too good for his rivals, scoring by 0.8 lengths. Has a strong second-up record and is among the winning hopes again. THIS CHALLENGE (8) fought on well for third last start over 1200m at this track, making it two minor placings in a row. Winning rider Jo Jae Ro sticks. Sure to be competitive. TROTTING RILEY (7) resumes in a similar race to his last run five months ago when ninth, beaten 6 lengths. Looks a strong top-three prospect.
