Verdict

MACHEON MAMA (6) gets the nod after a sound debut placing at this track, where she was second over 5f on soft ground and was near the top of betting. The 6f is new, but she has the race experience now, drops into a suitable setup and has the strongest upside among the main hopes. Powerful Mr. (3) has placed at his past two runs, including a third at this distance behind G B Ace, and his overall record of two placings from three starts gives him the most reliable exposed profile. FULL STRIKE (7) has not placed yet, but she did make some late ground from a long way back last start and is fitter third-up, so improvement is within reach. OPUS ONE (5) has been beaten by clear margins in two starts, though he was fourth last time and now gets to build third-up with blinkers applied, which keeps him in the minor-winning mix if he can finish off better.

#/Silk	Horse#/Horse	Power Rating	High Speed	Win %	Top 3%	Win Prob	Odds
6	Returns from a five-week freshening after making a sound debut at this track, finishing second over 5f on soft ground when near the top of betting. She settled just off the lead and travelled well before lacking the final quicken, so the extra 6f is the one query, but that first run gives her a strong platform. With natural improvement second-up, she sets the standard in this field. 1st Pick 6 Macheon Mama Jockey: R Maia Trainer: Seo Bum Seok J: R Maia T: Seo Bum Seok	190	-	-	-	50%	1/1

3	Has built a consistent profile with placings at his past two starts, the latest a third over 6f at this track when near the top of betting and beaten seven and a half lengths by G B Ace. Two back he came from a long way off them over 5f and still found the frame. He already has a placing at this distance and looks ready to convert that reliability into a serious winning push. 2nd Pick 3 Powerful Mr. Jockey: Kim Yong Geun Trainer: Lee Joon Chel J: Kim Yong Geun T: Lee Joon Chel	202	-	-	-	29%	5/2

7	Made some late ground from well back when fifth over 6f at this track last start, although she was beaten over 12 lengths and was big odds. Her debut fourth over 5f also came after starting unwanted in the market, so the finishing position has to be kept in context. Fitter third-up and down in class, she has enough upside to be a live danger if she settles within range. 3rd Pick 7 Full Strike Jockey: Jo Sang Beom Trainer: Shim Seung Tae J: Jo Sang Beom T: Shim Seung Tae	57	-	-	-	17%	5/1
