BUSAN   24 May 2024
 
GOING: F

Class 5 Handicap 1200m

Track: GOOD   Clear (Max: 25)   True  

Ruby Stone and Master Road to take up the running at a strong tempo. MASTER ROAD (7) is yet to break through in five runs but has been thereabouts. Placed two back then was 5 lengths away in fourth over 1200m at this track last time. Has good early speed. Overdue and shapes as a leading chance this line-up. RUBY STONE (8) met with solid support last start over 1200m at this track when third, beaten 8 lengths. Yet to miss the top three here in four starts. Likely to feature. PHANTOM ACE (6) finished fourth at this track and distance at his last appearance 14 months ago. Has switched to the Kang Eun Seok stable. Makes plenty of appeal. SANGIM BOLT (1) was a touch better last time out and can continue to improve. Each way value.
