Panama Race 1

5f Stakes

Prize Money: -

ROCOCO (4) Back from a break. Showed promise when winning last run at this track and dropping weight. Jockey Y Lasso is in form. Take beating. HERMANO MIO (6) Resumes after a break. Was all too good winning last run around here. A Paz Rodriguez stable are on fire recently. Genuine threat. JUST WAR (2) Finished 3rd last start around here and has a positive stall. Added confidence with C Castillo doing the steering. Has run into the money 6 from 6 attempts this campaign. Expect to go close. MEREQUETENGUE (7) On a quick back up. Tidy run when 3rd last run here but coming back in distance. R Fuentes is a suitable booking. Looks a good chance of finishing in the money.

Average performance when 7th last run around here but gets the perfect draw. L Arango rates highly aboard but will be dropping in distance. Will have to carry extra weight. One for the exotics.

First run back from a break. Strong performance to win last run around here and gets some weight taken off. Y Lasso is a pivotal booking. Will go very close.
