Verdict

SURPRISE (6) sets the standard after being beaten half a length at this track when a dominant odds-on favourite, and his three-start record of one win and two placings gives him the most reliable profile. The prior COND A win, when he beat Golden Diva by over 13 lengths, remains the standout piece of form. JEJU BLUE (7) is the clear danger after winning a COND A here by just under a length and she brings a strong record for both track and distance. CHOWOLMA (4) is knocking on the door after missing by half a length behind Mighty Ami and has the depth of an eleven-start record with five top-three finishes. RAIN STAR (9) is more of a place-leaning winning hope, but her latest third at big odds was a sound return to form and her two wins at this track and distance keep her in the discussion.

6	Was only narrowly beaten first-up at this track, finishing second by half a length behind Global Card after being pipped late as a dominant odds-on favourite. That defeat is the only small query, but it followed a COND A win here where he beat Golden Diva by over 13 lengths on soft ground. With one win and two placings from three starts at this track, he looks the horse to beat. 1st Pick 6 Surprise Jockey: Jeong Jeong Hee Trainer: Luigi-Salvatore Riccardi J: Jeong Jeong Hee T: Luigi-Salvatore Riccardi	174	-	-	-	84%

7	Returns from a two-month let-up after winning first-up at this track in COND A grade, beating Dareuri Yeowang by just under a length after picking up sharply late. She had earlier placed behind Beat Code and her overall profile is solid, with one win and two places from five starts. The class drop and proven 6 ½f form give her a clear winning chance again. 2nd Pick 7 Jeju Blue Jockey: Kim Tae Hyun Trainer: Park Jee Heon J: Kim Tae Hyun T: Park Jee Heon	100	-	-	-	8%

4	Returns from a two-month let-up after going very close at this track, finishing second and beaten half a length behind Mighty Ami when working home evenly. He was sound enough fourth behind Storm Guy the start prior and his record of one win and four places from eleven starts points to consistency. Proven at this track and distance and with a leading stable, he has a strong winning case. 3rd Pick 4 Chowolma Jockey: Lee Hyeok Trainer: Moon Byeong Ki J: Lee Hyeok T: Moon Byeong Ki	125	-	-	-	15%
