Verdict

GWANAKSAN WONDERFUL (10) returns from a spell of four months. Was safely held at the only appearance last prep when fourth over 1m at this track. Strong record with Johan Victoire aboard, including two wins. Sure to play a big role. GEUMJEOKSAN (11) bounced back last start and landed the prize by 1.5 lengths after being in contention on the corner as favourite over 6 ½f at this track. It doesn't get any easier but on her best form she is right in contention. SAMJEONG LADY (2) has returned in good shape this preparation. Opened with a third at this track two starts back then got the job done by 4 lengths last time out over 6 ½f at this track. Needs to be at her best to beat this field but she has the ability to mix it with them. ANYANG GIPPEUM (6) was beaten 8 lengths into fifth in a 6 ½f contest at this track last time out. Well placed to bounce back.
