Races CRO Seoul - KOR

Returns from a three-month break after ending last campaign with a well-held eighth over 2000m at this track, where he was weak through the line at generous odds. The run before was far stronger, leading with authority to beat East West by two lengths as favourite. His record around 1800m includes a win and a placing, and he has the profile to bounce back into the minors if ready fresh.

Returns from a five-week let-up after a dominant four-length win at this track, leading strongly and putting Keidragon away as favourite on soft ground. He had been beaten just under four lengths as a short odds-on favourite the start before, but the overall record is excellent with four wins from eight starts and three wins from four around 1800m. Drawn to use his early speed, he looks the horse they all have to catch.

Returns from a five-week let-up after finishing eighth over 1400m at this track, beaten nine and a half lengths after settling back and making no impression. His previous third to Hero Fighter was much better, beaten just over a length at long odds, and he has placed at his only run around 1800m. Even so, the latest effort leaves him with plenty to find against the main chances.

Worked home strongly for fourth in Open grade at this track four weeks ago, beaten a length and a half by Daeseong Star after having many lengths to make up. That followed a second in COND B company, albeit beaten nine lengths by Gladius. His two wins and nine placings from 15 starts at this track and distance make him dependable, but he profiles more as a solid place hope than a standout winner.

Returns from a lengthy spell after closing last campaign with consecutive wins at this venue, most recently beating Vics Go by four lengths after producing a big finish over 1400m. He had also beaten the same rival over 1600m the start before. Ten wins from 25 starts at this track and one win from one try around 1800m are strong positives, though the long absence keeps the assessment measured.

Has been well beaten in both recent runs, finishing ninth in Open grade at this track last start when beaten 21 lengths after weakening through the line. The run prior was no better, last over 1200m and unwanted in the market. His track-and-distance record shows three wins and four placings, but current form is a long way short of what is required here.

Returns from a five-week let-up after a fair first-up fifth over 1400m at this track, beaten eight and a half lengths at long odds. He had ended the previous campaign with a heavy COND B defeat behind Vics Go, so the recent form line is not compelling. Two wins and three placings from nine starts at this track and distance give him some each-way grounding, but he must improve to threaten.

Returns from a five-week let-up after a sharp second-up platform, beaten half a length by Super Finish over 1400m at this track when near the top of betting. His previous third behind Pepper X over 2000m was also sound, and he now gets meaningful weight relief with the apprentice claim. Three wins and a placing from six at this track and distance give him a strong winning case.

Returns from a three-month break after ending last campaign with a narrow win at this track, beating One Punch Dragon by a neck after travelling behind the leader and fighting on well. The run before was poor when beaten over 12 lengths at long odds, so consistency is the concern. His three wins and five placings from ten starts at this track and distance keep him in the place mix.
