BUSAN   29 Mar 2024
 
GOING: S

Class 2 Handicap 1200m

Track: SOFT   Clouds (Max: 16)    

Solid tempo likely from the outset with a number of speedy beginners engaged, most notably Golden Plus and Beolgyoui Kkum. CHOICE RUN (8) was far from disgraced when second last start after being in contention on the turn over 1200m at this track, beaten 0.8 lengths. That followed a win at this track the start prior. Finds a suitable race and can return to winning ways. HANGANG SAVER (7) ran ninth at his latest appearance over 1200m at Seoul, finishing 7 lengths from the winner. Has a solid record here including five wins and four minor placings from 14 outings. Among the top chances. GRAPHENE RAP WORLD (5) is poised to win after placing at her last five outings, most recently when second over 1200m at this track. You Hyun Myung gets the best out of this four-year-old filly. Meeting a tougher field but on her best form she is right in contention. GOLDEN PLUS (9) was well in commission last time but ran below expectations when fourth and beaten 4.5 lengths over 1200m at this track. Has a fine record here with five wins from 10 starts. Cannot be underestimated.
