Verdict

CHIEF STAR (5) is a promising galloper who saluted at her only run last prep 11 weeks ago over 6f in Listed grade at this track. Is yet to beaten first up from two starts. Has a strong association with Choi Bum Hyun who has been in the saddle for her last three wins. Sure to play a big role. TEUKGEUP PARTY (10) proved too strong last start and scored by a head over 6 ½f at this track. Has a good record at this track with two wins and three minor placings. Jo Jae Ro who has scored on her two times retains the mount. Should be in the finish. CHUPUNGNYEONG (11) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 8 lengths when fourth in a 1 ¹/16m contest at this track six weeks ago. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. SEOUL BULCHUNGGAK (3) disappointed last start when out of the placings over 7f at this track, beaten 7 lengths. Nicely placed to bounce back.
