Friday’s racing is at Busan with 8 races from 11:50 to 18:00. Here are the previews:

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

Juvenile maidens in the opener with four of the eight racing for the first time. After winning a trial, (8) D’LOVELY KING ran 2^nd on debut over this distance on October 4^th having sat handy and run on. He should have come on for the run and has every chance of going one better here. That can apply too to (7) DAEGIL HERO, who finished off very smartly for 3^rd place on debut on October 20^th. The time was similar to that of D’Lovely King and he can be a big danger late. Among the first timers, (5) DONGNAM DOLPUNG ran a decent time when racing on pace and the jockey booking is a positive. (1) FLEX ENGINE started slowly but finished off very well and 1200M first up may suit. Returning to the experience, (4) FLARE UP folded on debut after a promising start to the race and may improve.

Selections	(8) D’Lovely King (7) Daegil Hero (5) Dongnam Dolpung (1) Flex Engine
Next Best	4, 2
Fast Start	2, 3, 5, 8

Busan Race 2: Class 6 (1200M) Special Weight A / KRW 30 Million

Maiden fillies. (7) GEUMA DOMINANT has a 3^rd and a 2^nd from two starts so far and while she was well beaten by an excellent winner in the latter of them on October 18^th, she posted a good time. The returning Seo Seung-un climbs on and from a probably handy position, it can be third time lucky, and she will be a hot favourite. (9) FLY TO THE MOON was an improved 3^rd at start number two on October 11^th when racing on pace. Both of her outings so far have been over 1000M and the step up in trip may be in her favour. (8) CHEONGWAN has a 2^nd and a 3^rd from her latest two, the latter her first try at this distance three weeks ago. She will join the other two favourites in challenging for the early lead and can be in this a long way again. It’s hard to go past those three to fill out the trio but it’s not impossible that (10) HWARYEOHANJOMYEONG can improve or that (3) ROYAL WINNER, 3^rd in a trial, can put in a good effort on debut.

Selections	(7) Geuma Dominant (9) Fly To The Moon (8) Cheongwan (10) Hwaryeohanjomyeong
Next Best	3, 6
Fast Start	4, 7, 8, 9

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

Standard maiden. After running 4^th on debut, (4) TRIPLE SINHWA stepped up to this distance at start number two on October 18^th and having been sent off as favourite, led for much of the way around, ultimately finishing 2^nd but beating a couple of today’s rivals. He draws the same gate again and this time shouldn’t be caught. (10) CHOGYEOKCHA has identical form with a 4^th and a 2^nd from two starts, both at 1200M. He has run on well, posting excellent final furlong times, and the step up in trip can suit. He shapes as the main danger. (2) PINOT POWER ran 4^th behind Triple Sinhwa in that October 18^th race and from another good draw, can continue his consistent run of form. (7) DORAON SAMSON and (11) B.K. MARON among plenty of others in the placing frame.

Selections	(4) Triple Sinhwa (10) Chogyeokcha (2) Pinot Power (7) Doraon Samson
Next Best	11, 5
Fast Start	4, 8, 9, 10

Busan Race 4: Class 5 (1400M) Handicap / KRW 45 Million

(4) SEKWANG LIGHT broke through at start number two over 1300M on October 18^th, settling midfield and running on strongly. He comes up in class and slightly in distance, but neither should be a problem, and he can win again. Also up in class is (6) DIXIE WINNER. She is yet to win but gets a rating as result of back-to-back runner-up finishes in her latest two, most recently at this distance on October 4^th. Her style has been to come from off the pace so the additional half furlong may suit and under a light weight, she can measure up in this company. (3) ROSE DRAGON was a winner two starts back at this distance but was found lame (both forelegs) after a disappointing first try at this class on October 13^th. She came back into work on November 2^nd and fully fit, she can be much better this time around. The vastly experienced pair of (1) ZET CASH and (2) HWARANG ACE are others capable of picking up a prize in this kind of event.

Selections	(4) Sekwang Light (6) Dixie Winner (3) Rose Dragon (1) Zet Cash
Next Best	2, 8
Fast Start	2, 4, 8, 9
