Verdict

MIGHTY CHAMP (11) sets the standard after a close third on debut at this track and a last-start sixth as a well-supported favourite, beaten three and a half lengths after looming but not finishing it off. He is third-up now and still has the strongest exposed 6f profile. ECLIPSE EAGLE (10) is the danger on his second two runs back, when beaten just over a length at big odds, and the move back from Open grade gives him a genuine chance to rebound from a plain latest effort. THUNDER RUN (7) has a poor overall record, yet the light weight, apprentice claim and positive distance rating keep him in the mix if he improves sharply second-up. CUPID DREAMER (5) debuts with a useful stable profile, including 2 wins from 13 debut runners and a strong trainer-sire record, so market respect would be worth noting.

11	Was heavily backed last start and finished sixth at this track, beaten three and a half lengths after looming but not going on with it. That followed a strong debut third behind Yeondong Star, beaten just over half a length after being pipped late. The wide draw is a consideration, but he has the best exposed 6f form and is ready to peak third-up. 1st Pick 11 Mighty Champ Jockey: Kim Tae Hui Trainer: Cho Hyun Soo J: Kim Tae Hui T: Cho Hyun Soo	135	-	-	-	56%	4/5

10	Comes back from an Open run where he finished sixth at this track, beaten over 14 lengths after being unable to close off. The stronger pointer is his previous second behind K Socks, beaten just over a length at big odds after looming and fighting on. Fourth-up, race fit and back to a more suitable grade, he has the form to be a major player. 2nd Pick 10 Eclipse Eagle Jockey: Kim Tae Hun Trainer: Lee Joon Chel J: Kim Tae Hun T: Lee Joon Chel	146	-	-	-	10%	10/1

7	Was near the top of betting when resuming at this track but finished eighth, beaten over 14 lengths behind Dongbaek and only fair through the line. The ten-start maiden record is a clear concern, yet he gets strong relief to 115lbs with an apprentice claim and should be fitter second-up. With that setup, he can improve sharply enough to be a winning threat. 3rd Pick 7 Thunder Run Jockey: Jo Seonghwan Trainer: Tony Jean Castanheira J: Jo Seonghwan T: Tony Jean Castanheira	151	-	-	-	10%	10/1
