Verdict

ILGEUP BISUL (8) gets the nod after making late ground for fourth as favourite last start, beaten three lengths by Jeju Blue at this venue. Her previous second on soft ground gives the form some depth, and while her 7f record is not yet compelling, she has the most convincing recent profile. MYEONG POWERFUL (9) is still learning but has shown enough in two runs to be a real danger, closing off on debut before sticking on for fifth at this trip. GEUMSEONG BULPAE (3) improved sharply when third over 1 ¹/16m last start and is race fit, though the first go around 7f is the main qualification. GLOBAL HANAM (7) returns after two months, with his close second two runs back keeping him in the mix if he handles the longer trip.

8	Caught the eye when fourth at this venue last start, beaten three lengths by Jeju Blue after having plenty to do from well back. She was sent out favourite there, and her previous second to Samjeong Yeoje adds further weight to the case. The 7f record is the query, but her recent efforts are clearly good enough to make her the horse to beat. 1st Pick 8 Ilgeup Bisul Jockey: Kim Tae Hun Trainer: Jeon Seung Gyu J: Kim Tae Hun T: Jeon Seung Gyu	91	-	-	-	45%	5/4

9	Returns from a five-week freshening and is now third-up after two educational runs at this track. He was fifth last start, beaten five and a half lengths by Tongkwaehanseungja, but kept working when never a winning hope. His debut fourth over 5f also had merit from well back, and with further improvement he has the right profile to threaten strongly. 2nd Pick 9 Myeong Powerful Jockey: Johan Victoire Trainer: Moon Byeong Ki J: Johan Victoire T: Moon Byeong Ki	88	-	-	-	14%	13/2

3	Worked home evenly for third over 1 ¹/16m at this track last start, beaten just under four lengths by Powerful Arctic, and that was a clear step up on his previous seventh. He comes back to 7f for the first time, which asks a question, but his latest run is among the stronger recent pieces of form in this field and keeps him firmly in the winning discussion. 3rd Pick 3 Geumseong Bulpae Jockey: Jo Sang Beom Trainer: Seong Sanghyun J: Jo Sang Beom T: Seong Sanghyun	104	-	-	-	14%	13/2
