She’ll be on pace again and she may just a bit further on in her development than the first-timers. The only other filly is (7) DUBAI HEART. She ran 3rd in her trial behind two experienced racehorses. They may have dragged the time up to be a bit quicker than other trials, but she didn’t look out of place, and she can go well first-up. It took (6) YONGBI CHEONMA two goes to qualify but he was much improved in the second of them and can continue to make progress on debut.

(1) GOLD ROGER looks to be figuring things out with a 2nd and a 3rd from his latest two, both over 1400M and showing on pace both times. He can lead again here, and he can stay the additional furlong to claim his maiden win. (5) THANKYOUFORTHETIME enters off her best finish to date when 2nd over this distance on May 22nd when coming from well off the pace. She can finish strongly again here and can be a danger.

Busan Race 4: Class 3 (1200M) Handicap / KRW 75 Million
Competitive race. (2) BREEDO MIRACLE was an on pace winner at this distance on May 15th, her fourth success over the 1200M. She comes up in class, but she is down 3.5kg in weight and from a good draw, she can win again. (3) PACHAMAMA has run 3rd in each of her last four starts, all at this class and distance. Before that, she was a winner in January and with twelve top four finishes from fourteen starts, she will surely be in the finish again. (6) SPEED TOP beat Pachamama and a couple of others who return here on April 24th, overcoming a slow start to come from well off the pace. He has his fair share of weight here, but it would be no surprise if he won again. (9) BARAM DAERO and (5) JEOLDAE BOSS among plenty of others in the hunt.
