Verdict

GEOMEUN SUP (3) is yet to break through in seven runs but has been thereabouts. Placed two back then was 8 lengths away in fourth over 1 ?m at this track last time. Should be parked just off the speed. Overdue and shapes as a leading chance this line-up. TAEGISAN KING (1) ran a better race last start to finish a close second over 7f at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Looks well placed so expect another big run. ISIMNYEON SEWOL (5) did little and finished 16 lengths from the winner in seventh over 1 ¹/16m at this track last start after being in contention on the corner, a less impressive effort than his fifth at this track the run before. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. HAKSAN SWORD (8) hasn't made an impression lately despite market confidence. Last start could only manage 11th over 6 ½f at this track. Well-placed and can sneak into the finish.
