Korea Seoul - Race 6

POWERFUL ARCTIC (8) has the strongest claims after being well-supported favourite and winning by three lengths in COND A company at this track last start. Her record at this track and distance is a major advantage, with one win and two placings from four attempts, and the drop back into this Handicap gives her a clear form edge. BLACK SUN (1) is the main danger after being pipped by Black Mama last start despite being unwanted in the market, and her consistency at this venue keeps her right in the contest, though she is still chasing a first win. SKYLOR TAEHA (5) resumes second-up after beating Excalibur in COND A grade and has shown enough in a short career to be treated as a genuine winning chance, with the step to 1 ¹/16m the key question. K SOCKS (4) was plain last start, but his COND A win two back at this track and the return of the winning rider give him a sound place profile if he handles 1 ¹/16m for the first time.
