GOING: F

Class 1 Special Weight B 1200m

Track: GOOD   Clouds (Max: 26)    

Plenty of early pace with Man Of The Year and Doctor Caesar to vie for the lead, pressured by Ilbeonji and Beolgyoui Kkum. GANGSEO GIANT (1) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when second over 1600m at this track after being in contention all the way. Finds a suitable assignment and can discover winning form. DAEAM JANGGUN (4) is back after a break of 21 months. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1400m at this track. Comes here with definite claims. MAN OF THE YEAR (9) last appeared four weeks ago over 1400m at this track when he finished third. This is his first run for the Park Jae Ho stable. One of the genuine hopes in the race. DONGTEUJA BOY (2) resumes from a spell of eight months and is having his first outing under new trainer Bart Rice. Finished sixth at this track over 1600m at the opening run last time in work. Will be fit enough for this following a recent trial win.

Racing well. Comes here off a 35-day let-up. Most recently made some head-way from midfield; 2nd of 10 at this track on June 2 over 1600m, 5 len behind Wonderful Slew with 56kg at $6.50. The start before that 2nd of 12 at Seoul on April 28 over 1400m, 4 len behind Jeulgeounyeojeong carrying 56kg at $6.50. The inside draw is a real bonus.
