Verdict

CONTROLLER (9) is back after a break of eight months. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 7f at this track. Rates highly and is likely to be prominent. GANGSEO GIANT (7) did her best work late to finish third when unwanted in betting at her latest appearance at this track over 7f. Backmarker who keeps coming. Will prove hard to hold out. CHOEGOUI KKUM (3) resumes in a similar race to his only run last prep back on August 2 when fourth, beaten 3.5 lengths. Lining up today for the first time for trainer You Hyun Myung. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Will give backers a great sight. DOCTOR CAESAR (4) dug deep to score two back then was beaten 20 lengths into ninth over 1 ?m at this track last time seven weeks ago. Can feature on his best form.
