HOLY DAY (3) Mediocre performance when 4th last time around here. Looking past the last run. Can get the job done . MAPONUS (2) Racing on a quick back up. Ran well when 2nd last run here and suited at this distance historically. Has shown early pace in races to date. Looks a winning hope. WOMP WOMP (1) Ran 2nd last run at Milano and has a positive draw. Dario Di Tocco adds value. Will be giving the leaders a big start. Solid place bet prospects. BURROBIRRA (5) First up from a spell. Finished 5th last time at this venue. Capable of bouncing back. One of the hopes.

Did well when 2nd last run at Milano and drawn nicely. Dario Di Tocco is highly regarded. Likely to get back in the field. Represents significant value.

On a quick turnaround. In the money when 2nd last run here and will be well suited at the distance. Should muster plenty of early toe. Should go very close.

Odds of $3.25 and clearly outclassed when 4th last time at this venue. Looking past the last run. Attracts support.

First up. Amongst the placegetters when 3rd last start at Pisa and drawn beautifully. Expected to settle towards the rear. Hard to recommend with any confidence.
