Korea Seoul - Race 1

LEGEND MONSTER (5) has the most persuasive profile despite going under as an odds-on favourite last start, when he led and was run down late before finishing sixth, beaten just over four lengths. His second to Tongkwaehanseungja two runs back on soft ground reads well for this level, and two placings from four starts at this track give him a solid base. LOVING PURPLE (11) is the immediate danger after fighting hard when second to Yongbi Sinseong, beaten just over a length, and the blinkers going on add another angle, although her overall maiden record keeps the assessment measured. BONBON TIARA (7) was beaten over 14 lengths last start, but she caught the eye late after giving away too much start and now has a leading track jockey aboard. SEOBU KING (3) brings a last-start second at this venue and has been building steadily, with the main task turning that place form into a sharper winning performance.
