Two Group 3 races at Busan highlight Sunday’s action with the Gyeongnam Governor’s Cup (2000M KOR-G3), for fillies and mares followed by the Kookje Shinmun Cup (1400M KOR-G3), which has attracted the nation’s top sprinters. There are 6 races at Busan from 12:05 to 16:30 and 11 at Seoul from 10:35 to 18:00. Here are the previews:

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

Juvenile maidens with three of the twelve racing for the first time. (7) GEOLJAK TIARA is the one to beat though having followed up a 5^th place on debut over 1000M in August with 2^nd when stepped up to this distance on September 21^st. She will be expected to lead here and go all the way. (11) MIGHTY BEAT has also raced twice and was an improved 4^th at start two on September 27^th. His time was quicker than that achieved by Geoljak Tiara for the same distance and he will be the second favourite. (2) SUPERDAY and (3) BROWN MAMMA came home 3^rd and 5^th respectively when they debuted together over 1000M on September 13^th and both should have come on for the run. Of the three first timers, (8) RAON BLITZ was the best in trials.

Selections	(7) Geoljak Tiara (11) Mighty Beat (2) Superday (3) Brown Mamma
Next Best	8, 1
Fast Start	1, 4, 5, 7

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

Fillies only in this maiden. (6) RAON SNIPER was an improved 2^nd at start two over this distance on September 7^th, having raced on pace throughout. She can lead again here and third-up she can be peaking. She will dispute favourite status with (2) CLUTCH LOVE, who debuted in a quick filly race over 1000M on September 20^th when she settled midfield and finished off pleasingly. She should have benefited from the experience, and the additional furlong can suit. One of only two three-year-olds in the race, (7) DAJEONGHAN debuted all the way back in February, running 3^rd at this distance. She looked very well when winning a trial in late September and can be in the mix first-up. (4) MIGHTY SHINE and (5) MACHEON WORLD other chances.

Selections	(6) Raon Sniper (2) Clutch Love (7) Dajeonghan (4) Mighty Shine

Fast Start	2, 3, 6, 9

Seoul Race 3: Class 4 (1800M) Handicap / KRW 60 Million

(9) AWESOME QUEEN has never finished outside the top four and comes in having led at this class for much of the way around on what was her first try at 1800M on September 21^st. She actually carries 1kg less today, Moon Se-young climbs up for the first time, and she is very much the one to beat. (6) DRAGON FANTASY has won his latest two, both at 1400M. He comes up in class today, as well as up to two turns for the first time, but he can measure up. (5) BLACK SATANG was a class and distance winner on September 27^th, settling midfield and running on. She stays under the same light weight and can be in the finish again. Apprentice claims bring both (7) K POWERFUL and (8) GOMANARU into the placing picture.

Selections	(9) Awesome Queen (6) Dragon Fantasy (5) Black Satang (7) K Powerful

Busan Race 1: Class 6 (1400M) Special Weight A / KRW 30 Million

(5) BURUI SINJEON has made steady progress across four starts so far, culminating in a 2^nd place on his first try at this distance on September 21^st when emerging from midfield and beating a couple of today’s rivals. Munro stays on and the pair can go one better. (10) STAY COOL didn’t do much in her first two appearances, but she was a much-improved 2^nd when sent up to this distance for start three on September 28^th when she led until the furlong pole. She is drawn a touch wider than ideal, but in the absence of much speed on her inside, she should be able to find her way to the front, and she can be in this a long way. (12) MUJEOKYI has also made progress over three starts and with a 2^nd place last time out can be in this. (7) BEAT BOY and (4) SERYEONDOENWISUN are others in the frame.

Selections	(5) Burui Sinjeon (10) Stay Cool (12) Mujeokyi (7) Beat Boy

Seoul Race 4: Class 6 (1700M) Special Weight A / KRW 30 Million

(3) ALPHA FEMALE got a spin around in the final leg of the Triple Tiara, finishing a cool eight-seconds behind the winner. She does though have a 3^rd and a 5^th in two starts since then both in similar maidens to this at 1700M. Her draw, which means she should lead again and, to be lazy about this, the booking of Moon Se-young for the first time, put her on top. (5) MR.CARA enters off a best to date 3^rd place at 1400M on September 20^th. He comes up to two turns for the first time and in this company, it can suit. (8) TTOSUNI SEOUL returned from three months off to run 4^th over 1400M at the end of September. He has placed at this distance and stripping fitter for that run, can get closer. (2) MAX MAN and (11) YEOMYEONGUI SUNGAN others to consider on a place line.

Selections	(3) Alpha Female (5) Mr.Cara (8) Ttosuni Seoul (2) Max Man

Busan Race 2: Class 5 (1300M) Handicap / KRW 45 Million

Fillies (and one mare) here. (2) ALL THE BEST got her maiden win at start number three over 1400M on September 14^th when leading from gate to wire and stopping the clock in a good time, a full nine-lengths to the good. She comes up in class here but draws well and the manner of that victory means she will be a short price to repeat. (12) QUEENS DRAGON was a winner at this class over 1200M on September 19^th. She comes up 3kg in weight and has the challenge of the widest gate, but she can be competitive again. (10) STRAWBERRY QUEEN is up in class after scoring by sic-lengths over 1200M on September 19^th. She and fellow up in class last start winner (11) GRAND TREE can measure up in this company. (9) WIND ROSE another to look out for on a place line.

Selections	(2) All The Best (12) Queens Dragon (10) Strawberry Queen (11) Grand Tree
