There’s no Stakes action but there is still plenty to get stuck into on Sunday with 11 races at Seoul from 10:35 to 18:00 and 6 at Busan from 11:25 to 16:05. Here are the previews:

Seoul Race 1: Class 6 (1200M) Special Weight A / KRW 45 Million

Juvenile maidens in the opener with six of the ten racing for the first time. Experience goes on top though as (1) BEST RACE ran a solid 2^nd place over this distance on debut on October 5^th, racing on pace throughout and stopping the clock in a decent time. With any kind of natural improvement, he is hard to go past here. Among the debut-makers, there are a couple of standouts. (8) MR.STORM won his trial leading all the way around and if he brings that form to the races, he will be a chance. Meanwhile, (7) JISAN FORCE led for much of the way around in his trial, ultimately crossing the line 2^nd in a good time. Moon Se-young’s presence will ensure he has plenty of first-up supporters. (9) QUEEN DIA and (5) SEMYEONG DIA are others with experience who may improve.

Selections	(1) Best Race (8) Mr.Storm (7) Jisan Force (9) Queen Dia
Next Best	5, 3
Fast Start	1, 2, 7, 8

Seoul Race 2: Class 6 (1300M) Special Weight A / KRW 45 Million

More juvenile maidens. (1) ONE PUNCH DRAGON showed on pace on debut over this distance on September 28^th, ultimately finishing 3^rd. It was a run full of potential and from the inside gate again, he should be on pace here with every chance of going all the way this time. (6) GEUMA FOREMOST has raced twice, finishing 5^th on debut over 1000M, and then 3^rd at 1200M at the end of August. He comes in fresh following eight weeks off, and he can be in this, Like One Punch Dragon, (8) GRAND KWAEMA was 3^rd on debut in his case over 1200M on September 29^th. He too should have come on for the run and shapes as a danger. Solitary debut maker (7) WONDERFUL FAPPY (may get a spelling alteration) dominated a trial earlier this month and if he brings that form to the races, has to be in the mix. (9) ECLIPSE THE KING has run fairly in his first two appearances and may improve.

Selections	(1) One Punch Dragon (6) Geuma Foremost (8) Grand Kwaema (7) Wonderful Fappy
Next Best	9, 5
Fast Start	1, 7, 8, 9

Busan Race 1: Class 6 (1200M) Special Weight A / KRW 30 Million

Maiden fillies only here and anything could win. (9) NICE BUDDY ran 2^nd on debut over this distance on September 27^th well beaten by a good winner but showing promise. With some natural improvement, she has as much chance as any here. (6) DREAMMA enters off the back of two consecutive 4^th place finishes, both at this distance and both times sitting just behind the speed and running on. She has the fastest time among these by a considerable margin (admittedly recorded in a week when the track was racing very fast) and she can be a danger. (3) WORLD ANGEL CAT returned from over three months out to run a much-improved 2^nd over 1400M on October 11^th, leading for much of the way. She makes a quick return here and draws well to lead again. (10) GOLDMASK and (12) DOLPHIN KICK are others to consider.

Selections	(9) Nice Buddy (6) Dreamma (3) World Angel Cat (10) Goldmask
Next Best	12, 2
Fast Start	2, 3, 5, 9

Seoul Race 3: Class 6 (1400M) Special Weight A / KRW 30 Million

Two standouts here. Following an inauspicious debut, (10) HANURI was a close 4th at start number two over 1300M on September 14^th, settling midfield and running on. He has the challenge of the widest gate but the slight step up in trip can suit and he can win. The danger is (8) ELDORADO HEUNGBU. He has a best of 3^rd from three starts so far, having dropped back and run on each time. He should similarly benefit from the extended trip. (5) HIPPODROME is starting to get some consistency and enters off back-to-back 4^th places, most recently when stepped up to this distance on June 30^th. He has had seventeen weeks off since then and was lame in August, but he has been back in work since the second week of this month, and he can be competitive again here. (3) JEWELRY FASHION and (7) NEOMANEULWIHAESEO others in the frame.

Selections	(10) Hanuri (8) Eldorado Heungbu (5) Hippodrome (3) Jewelry Fashion
Next Best	7, 4
Fast Start	1, 8, 9, 10

Busan Race 2: Class 6 (1400M) Special Weight A / KRW 30 Million

(10) COWBOY MAN came out of gate eleven over 1000M on debut on September 29^th and finished off very well for a fair 6^th of twelve in a race where the margins weren’t big. He should have come on for that run, the step up in trip can be to his benefit, Munro stays on and he can win. (7) RIGHT CHAMP stepped up to this trip at start number two on September 27^th and from a handy position, ran on to run 2^nd. In this company, he can be forward early, and he can be a threat. (6) BLACK SPEED has shown progress over three starts with his latest 4^th place at 1200M being his best. You Hyun-myung climbs on here and he should be aiming to get even closer. (9) HI LEGEND and (2) TEAM SURPRISE others in at least the placing frame.

Selections	(10) Cowboy Man (7) Right Champ (6) Black Speed (9) Hi Legend
Next Best	2, 1
Fast Start	3, 6, 7, 10

Seoul Race 4: Class 6 (1400M) Special Weight A / KRW 30 Million

(6) FLASH GOLD did nothing on debut but was a much-improved 2^nd at start number two over 1400M on September 28^th when handy throughout. Third-up he can be peaking fitness wise, and he shapes as the one to beat here. (9) USEUNG JINLI is the danger. He went through plenty of trials before debuting, which he finally did over 1200M on September 28^th, settling back and running through the line well. He should have derived benefit from that run, and the step up in trip can suit. (7) POSEIDON BLUE enters off back-to-back 3^rd place finishes, both at 1300M and both times finishing off well. He should be there or thereabouts again. (2) COMMAND BLUE hinted at improvement last time out and can build on her 5^th place, while (4) SUPER BLUEMOON is another seemingly on the right trajectory.  

Selections	(6) Flash Gold (9) Useung Jinli (7) Poseidon Blue (2) Command Blue
Next Best	4, 1
Fast Start	2, 7, 9, 10
