Verdict

RAON FLORENCE (9) has the strongest winning profile, with five wins and five placings from 11 attempts at around 6f and an excellent overall record of five wins from 12 starts. He was beaten six lengths in Open grade over 7f last time, but the return to his preferred distance and the class relief make him the horse to beat. MIGHTY JOY (5) comes off a fighting half-length win over Concord Blue at this track and has won three times at the track and distance, although he does carry more weight now. SPALTA (11) has been honest with consecutive thirds and his 6f record keeps him right in the contest, even if Raon Florence had his measure two starts ago. SPARK THUNDER (8) resumes after winning strongly over 1m before the break and has four wins from nine attempts around this trip, so she has the profile to run well fresh if ready to produce first-up.

9	Brings the best overall profile, with five wins and five placings from 12 starts and a dominant record at around this track-and-distance range. He was fifth in Open grade over 7f last start, beaten six lengths after not finishing off, but that followed a favourite's win at this venue over Silver Rain. Back to his preferred 6f setup, he looks the runner they have to beat. 1st Pick 9 Raon Florence Jockey: Choi Bum Hyun Trainer: Lee Kangseo J: Choi Bum Hyun T: Lee Kangseo	232	-	-	-	43%	11/8

5	Lifted sharply third-up when winning at this track last start, fighting on to beat Concord Blue by half a length at long odds. That was a clear turnaround from his soft-ground ninth behind Raon Silence, and his record of three wins and two placings from nine attempts around 6f is a major asset. He rises 10lbs, but the track-and-trip profile keeps him right in the winning mix. 2nd Pick 5 Mighty Joy Jockey: Kim Tae Hui Trainer: Seo Hongsoo J: Kim Tae Hui T: Seo Hongsoo	132	-	-	-	7%	14/1

11	Returns from a six-week freshening in consistent form, having run third at his past two starts at this track. He was beaten four and a half lengths by Raon Silence last time after being close enough to win, and two back he was four lengths off Raon Florence. Proven at the track and distance and reliable with Kim Hyo Jung, he remains one of the better winning hopes. 3rd Pick 11 Spalta Jockey: Kim Hyo Jung Trainer: Park Jae Woo J: Kim Hyo Jung T: Park Jae Woo	92	-	-	-	29%	5/2
