Racing returns from its one-week Chuseok hiatus on Friday with a 9-race card at Busan from 11:15 to 17:55. Here are the previews:

Busan Race 1: Class 6 (1000M) Special Weight A / KRW 45 Million

(1) WINNING WILD has trialled once for a fourth on August 13 when on pace throughout. Seo Seung-un rides for trainer Choi Ki-hong and owner Choi Sang-il so it is a powerful trio that combine with this Bayern filly and she will go close. She was ridden by Franco da Silva in her heat who rides (11) RED DEVILS which has trialled once for a victory on August 27 when leading for most of the way to score by a narrow margin. The highest draw does not do him any favours, but he is still a top chance of coming out and following up his trial victory with a win on his race debut. (5) FLEX TEUKGEUP has trialled once for a third a month ago, when similarly on speed throughout, whilst (8) PRESS QUEEN made up some ground to run third in her hit out at the end of August, she was however beaten eighteen-and-a-half lengths by the winner. (6) SKY BOLT was eighth of ten beaten twenty-lengths in his only heat but from the Thomas Gillespie stable should not be totally disregarded with (3) CUPID GOLD next best following an on pace fourth in her trial three weeks ago.

Selections	(1) Winning Wild (11) Red Devils (5) Flex Teukgeup (8) Press Queen
Next Best	6, 3
Fast Start	1, 3, 5, 11

Busan Race 2: Class 4 (1000M) Special Weight A / KRW 75 Million

(5) UNCLE PARK has raced twice for a third to the impressive Supex World on debut followed by a narrow second three weeks ago when attempting to lead throughout. Considering he raced without shoes on both forelegs in that race, after casting a plate on the near fore on the way to the post the decision was made to remove his off fore shoe, it was quite a big run and in the colours of Roshe the Uncle Chuck colt can go close for Seo Seung-un and Baik Kwang-yeol and will likely be very short. (4) DAEHAN KING has trialled once for a one-and-a-half length win on September 10 and under David Breux this Aloha West debutante can be expected to give this a real shake. (3) HONOUR SPECIAL was the one that was that one-and-a-half length in arrears of Daehan King in that trial three weeks ago and should not be too far away again whilst his stablemate (6) WISDOM PICK is the mount of Franco da Silva and the best of his three trials was his most recent when finishing fourth to some experienced customers. The others need to improve with (7) PERFECT LINE the most likely to do that and he rates ahead of (2) TOHAMSAN HONOR.

Selections	(5) Uncle Park (4) Daehan King (3) Honour Special (6) Wisdom Pick
Next Best	7, 2
Fast Start	3, 4, 5, 7

Busan Race 3: Class 6 (1200M) Special Weight A / KRW 30 Million

(11) JEONGMUNKEUNDAEBAG has trialled once for a front-running victory on September 17, and he looked mightily impressive in that score so despite the widest gate he should very much make his presence felt for Franco da Silva and Bart Rice. (1) WILD JUMP ran her race before it began back on debut in February when getting upset in the stalls and subsequently dropping out after leading. She again attempted to lead throughout at her second start back in July and did better finishing third and for the Seo Seung-un, Choi Ki-hong, Choi Sang-il combination should not be dismissed. (2) CLUTCH TIME did not do much in his solitary trial on August 27, but he comes from the Thomas Gillespie yard so he should be kept safe under Masa Tanaka. (8) OASIS SONG is a first career ride for Hong Hwan-woong and going on his second run is not hopeless with (7) NUMBER ONE PLAY, which has trialled once for a fourth, next best over the Moon Hyeon-cheol trained (9) BREEDO GREEN which failed on debut as a 2.5 favourite only beating one home but should not be completely forgotten.

Selections	(11) Jeongmunkeundaebag (1) Wild Jump (2) Clutch Time (8) Oasis Song
Next Best	7, 9
Fast Start	1, 3, 4, 8, 9, 11

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

(5) GLOBAL TOP TIER has not been far away in two of his three starts to date finishing behind some decent types of his own two-year-old age group and rates as a strong chance to go a few places better. (1) DOCTOR ATE is another juvenile who finishes off his races well and will be doing his best work late. The draw may necessarily not be to his advantage but if he sees daylight expect him to be running home hard going on what we have seen from him in three runs so far. (6) VIRAL HIT has David Breux aboard and has finished in the top four in three of his past four runs whilst (2) GEUMBIT has improved with experience and is not the worst. (9) DYNAMIC LEMON was much better last start and Franco da Silva rides with (8) DREAM BLUE best of the rest.

Selections	(5) Global Top Tier (1) Doctor Ate (6) Viral Hit (2) Geumbit
Next Best	9, 8
Fast Start	2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 9
