Saturday’s racing is at Seoul with 11 races from 10:35 to 17:55. Here are the previews:

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

Competitive maiden to begin. (7) BONBON TIARA has two 4^th places and a 5^th from three starts so far, most recently stepping up to this trip for the first time on September 20^th. She’ll race handy, the in-form Asano stays on, and she can win. (3) SEOBU KING was an improved 2^nd over 1300M at start five on September 19^th. He was beaten seven-lengths by a good winner but doesn’t face anything like that here and won’t have to improve much to go very close. (11) LOVING PURPLE led for much of is latest on October 10^th over this distance, ultimately only going down by a length and a quarter. She has the challenge of the widest gate here but can be in the mix again. (5) LEGEND MONSTER and (3) WALLSTREET other minor money chances.

Selections	(7) Bonbon Tiara (3) Seobu King (11) Loving Purple (5) Legend Monster
Next Best	3, 10
Fast Start	2, 5, 9, 11

Seoul Race 2: Class 4 (1200M) Special Weight A / KRW 75 Million

Imported maidens for northern hemisphere two-year-olds and southern hemisphere three-year-olds with five of the eight racing for the first time. (4) CLUTCH CHAMP went through two trials, improving significantly in the second of them (2^nd from gate twelve in 62.7 seconds on September 17^th). He draws well here and if he brings that form to the races, he can win. (2) CASTELLA debuted in July with a solid 4^th place over 1000M. He had a setback afterwards but has been back in full work since the start of this month and he is the main danger. (8) HERO MITOLE was a close 2^nd in his trial just last week when leading close to home. So long as he didn’t leave his race there, he can be competitive first up. Another first timer (1) NAREUSYA GLORY, along with (5) EAST WINNER, who has raced twice for a 3^rd and an 8^th, are the others to consider.

Selections	(4) Clutch Champ (2) Castella (8) Hero Mitole (1) Nareusya Glory
Next Best	5, 6
Fast Start	2, 4, 6, 8

Seoul Race 3: Class 6 (1200M) Special Weight A / KRW 45 Million

Juvenile maidens with four of the eleven racing for the first time. After a couple of good trials, (9) LUMINOUS finished in 3^rd place on debut over 1000M on October 3^rd, coming from off the pace and only beaten just over a length. He should have come on for that run, the step up in trip can suit, and he is the one to beat. (8) GHOST THUNDER ran 6^th on debut before improving to 4^th at start two over this distance on October 5^th. Both times he has come from well off the pace and as the only one in the race with two outings behind him, e may have a fitness edge here. (6) WONPYEONG CAT came from a long way back to run 6^th of eleven behind Luminous on October 3^rd and is another wo should benefit from a bit further. Of the first-time starters, (5) PLOTTER and (7) MANY BLITZ were the best in trials, the former having won his. One thing to be aware of is that there is no obvious early speed in the field.

Selections	(9) Luminous (8) Ghost Thunder (6) Wonpyeong Cat (5) Plotter
Next Best	7, 11
Fast Start	1, 2, 9, 11

Seoul Race 4: Class 6 (1000M) Special Weight A / KRW 45 Million

Juvenile maidens with five of the nine racing for the first time. (5) DAON HUNTER showed on pace over this distance on debut on September 6^th, ultimately coming home in 2^nd place, beaten four-lengths. He should have come on for that run, he can lead again here, and he can go one better. (7) CRAZY BLUE was similarly only about four-lengths behind the winner, albeit back in 4^th place, on his debut on September 13^th over 1000M. he too can be on pace again and in this a long way. (4) YEONGWONHAN BOSS won his trial from the front and from a central draw, can put in a bold effort first up. (3) MR. BULLS and (9) POINT WIND also hinted at ability in their respective heats.
