Verdict

YEONGWONHAN LUCEA (4) shows the best recent form, finishing a nose second to Storm Crush and taking third behind Challanhanhamseong, just over two lengths back. With two placings from six starts at this track, she leads the market despite still being a maiden. GOD SPEED (8) returns after a four-month break, coming off a fourth to Cheonma Nubi and a third to Power Magic. She has two placings from five starts at this track and distance, putting her in contention if she's fit. SMART RISE (11) also comes back, previously well-regarded with two placings from eight starts at this venue, although his last two runs before the break were just fair. MASK GIRL (3) has been competitive for minor prizes, placing behind Eco Bolt and finishing fourth to Jeju Princess, and her strong jockey-trainer combo keeps her in the mix, although she needs a sharper closing effort.

4	Arrives with the best recent form, having followed a nose second to Storm Crush with a third behind Challanhanhamseong, beaten just over two lengths on good ground. Both efforts showed she can keep finding to the line, and her two placings from six starts at this track read well for this field. Still chasing a first win, but she brings the strongest current profile and has every chance to break through. 1st Pick 4 Yeongwonhan Lucea Jockey: Lee Hyeok Trainer: Lee Dong Kook J: Lee Hyeok T: Lee Dong Kook	171	-	-	-	25%	3/1

8	Returns from a four-month break with enough prior form to be a genuine threat, having been last seen when fourth to Cheonma Nubi at this track, beaten six and a half lengths when near the top of betting. She had earlier run third to Power Magic, and her two placings from five starts at this track and distance are important in this company. If forward enough fresh, she has a solid winning case. 2nd Pick 8 God Speed Jockey: Kim Jeong Jun Trainer: Shim Seung Tae J: Kim Jeong Jun T: Shim Seung Tae	68	-	-	-	25%	3/1

11	Returns from a five-month break after being last seen finishing sixth to Energy Power at this track, beaten just over six lengths when near the top of an open market. He had also been favourite when fifth to Raon Kingsman the start prior, so the betting has respected him despite the absence of a win. Barrier 11 is not ideal, but two placings from eight starts at this venue keep him firmly in the mix if he resumes in order. 3rd Pick 11 Smart Rise Jockey: Kim Hyo Jung Trainer: Song Moon Gil J: Kim Hyo Jung T: Song Moon Gil	84	-	-	-	20%	4/1
