Busan Korea Race 3 - 6 1/2F Hcap
ARI DRAGON (6) is a promising filly yet to miss the frame after two starts, including a win. Is at the races for the first time since she finished second over 1400m at this track on July 21 2024. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Best figures should see her run well. SINCHEON FREEDOM (7) turned in a modest performance when tenth last time out over 1400m at this track, beaten 11 lengths. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. HOLIDAY QUEEN (3) is yet to break through in 10 runs but has been thereabouts. Placed two back then was 4.5 lengths away in fourth over 1400m at this track last time. Has a strong finish. Best form stacks up and she is among the chances. GOOGLE CAR (5) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when sixth over 1200m at this track. Nicely placed to bounce back.

Comes here off a 44-day let-up. Last start crossed from a wide gate to settle just off the pace but gave ground when 6th of 12 at this track on November 28 over 1200m, 12 len behind Twin Rainbow with 56.5kg at $8.60. The start before that ran on from midfield; 2nd of 12 at this track on November 2 over 1200m, 0.5 len behind Mega Play carrying 55.5kg at $13.30. Better than that recent moderate performance suggests.
