GOING: F

Class 3 Handicap 1400m

Track: GOOD   Rain (Max: 32)    

Strong early tempo with Crown Hamseong, Yeongwon Fighter and Achim Dongja leading the way. CROWN HAMSEONG (1) resumes from a spell of 11 weeks and comes here off the back of three straight wins. Comfortable winner last time and expected to be in the finish again. YEONGWON FIGHTER (5) finished fourth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1200m at this track, beaten 3.5 lengths after being in the firing line on the turn. Worth noting Lee Yong Ho goes aboard. Likely improver with strong prospects. ACHIM DONGJA (2) ran below expectations last time at this track over 1200m, finishing sixth and beaten 4.5 lengths. Yet to miss the frame from five starts at the trip, including a win and is expected to be competitive. GEOLJAK ONE (7) produced another moderate effort last start when 520 lengths from the winner in 15th over 1800m at this track. Worth noting Lee Hyeok goes aboard. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
