Returns from a two-month freshening after running second at this track on soft ground, though the margin was still nine lengths behind Namsan Rock and she was at generous odds. Her fourth here the run prior had a similar shape, making late ground from long odds but beaten eight and a half lengths. The track-and-trip win keeps her in minor calculations, but she profiles as a place hope rather than a major winning threat.

Back after five weeks following a sound second at this track on soft ground, beaten three lengths by Stunning Sket after being right there and holding on fairly. He had made up late ground when fifth to Tiger Mangchi the start before, so the recent form has more substance than the raw positions suggest. Proven at 1400m and effective with this jockey, he has the right profile to be around the placings again.

Returns from a two-month freshening as the clear form runner, having beaten Namsan Minam by two and a half lengths at this track after travelling strongly and putting the race away. That followed a close second to Breedo Caley, so his current campaign reads very well. With a reliable track-and-distance record and the same successful rider back aboard, he sets the standard and deserves top billing.

Returns from a two-month freshening after finishing fourth at this track, but she was beaten nine and a half lengths at long odds and that followed a second-last placing when beaten out of sight. She does have a prior win around 1400m, yet her five starts this season have produced no placings. A class drop gives some support, but she has to show far more under race pressure.

Returns from a two-month freshening after finishing fifth over 1200m at this track, beaten three and a half lengths from big odds. The first try at around 1400m is the obvious question, especially after being last two back, but her broader profile is stronger than those defeats read: two wins from five starts at this venue and a class drop in her favour. She can rebound sharply in this company.

Resumes after three months off following an eighth at this track before the spell, where he raced just off the speed and was only battling when beaten seven and a half lengths. His previous second as an odds-on favourite reads better, and he has placed five times from six attempts at this track and distance. The win column remains the concern, but his consistency keeps him in the placing mix.

Had some interference at the start before finishing fourth in an Open over 1200m at this track, beaten just over six lengths and unwanted in the market. His second to Raon Nizhinskii two back was better, although he was favourite and still beaten five lengths. The record around 1400m is sound, but recent margins make him more of an each-way hope than a primary winning chance.

Back after five weeks following a weak last-place effort over 1700m at this track, where he settled rearward and gave further ground in the run home. The prior fourth to One Dia was more respectable, beaten just under five lengths, and he returns to a trip where he has two career wins. Even so, he is winless this season and must turn around a plain recent trend to threaten.

Returns from a two-month let-up after finishing second to Wonpyeong Gangja at this track, beaten two and a half lengths and safely held despite starting at generous odds. His earlier fifth over 1200m was sound enough after racing prominently, and his two wins and two placings from five starts at this track and distance are a major plus. With the claim, he remains a realistic place chance.

Resumes after three months off following a final run before the break where he was never competitive and beaten out of sight at this track. The start prior was better when fifth, but he was unwanted in betting and still beaten just under six lengths. His track-and-distance record offers some grounding, yet the recent form standard is well short of the main chances.

Back after six weeks following a narrow second at this track, where he fought hard and was beaten only a head by Win Catcher as one of the leading market hopes. His fifth two back was plain, but the broader record is consistent and he has placed three times from four attempts at this track and distance. With solid rider-horse figures as well, he looks a genuine winning threat.
