Verdict

MYEONG BEAUTIFUL (6) sets the standard after a debut third at this track, beaten just over two lengths by Tun Teja over 6f despite starting at long odds. She is still learning, and 7f is new territory, but the late work on debut was the strongest exposed form in this line-up and the stable profile adds to the appeal. POWER RACER (2) also resumes off a debut placing at this venue, although that third came more than 11 lengths from Samjeong Chef on soft ground, so she has more to prove while still rating the logical danger. BAEKSAN RACE (4) was unwanted in the market and beaten over 10 lengths by B Work last start, but his earlier fifth behind Wow Runner was sound enough for minor claims if he improves second-up. BLUE FINISH (1) has been well held in two starts, most recently second last behind B Work, yet barrier one and added race fitness leave him as a rougher place hope if the 7f brings sharper finishing effort.

6	Back after two months off following the best debut performance in the race, a third at this track when beaten just over two lengths by Tun Teja over 6f. She had work to do but closed late to get into the money, which gives her a strong platform second-up. The 7f is still untried, but she rates on top for recent form and comes from a leading stable, making her the one they have to beat. 1st Pick 6 Myeong Beautiful Jockey: Song Jae Chul Trainer: Moon Byeong Ki J: Song Jae Chul T: Moon Byeong Ki	178	-	-	-	62%	8/13

2	Returns from a lengthy spell after placing on debut at this track, finishing third behind Samjeong Chef over 5f on soft ground. The margin was still more than 11 lengths and she was unwanted in the market, but she showed enough early race sense to hold a spot in the finish. Blinkers come off and 7f is untried, yet her only exposed run keeps her among the stronger chances. 2nd Pick 2 Power Racer Jockey: Choi Bum Hyun Trainer: Hong Yunwhoa J: Choi Bum Hyun T: Hong Yunwhoa	90	-	-	-	25%	3/1

4	Was midfield second-up at this track when seventh behind B Work, beaten over 10 lengths after sitting just off the speed without launching a serious challenge. His debut fifth behind Wow Runner had more market respect and was sound without threatening. Yet to race around 7f, so improvement is required, but his overall profile still gives him realistic place claims. 3rd Pick 4 Baeksan Race Jockey: Lim Da Bin Trainer: Jung Ho Ik J: Lim Da Bin T: Jung Ho Ik	73	-	-	-	12%	8/1
