Livorno Race 2

7 1/2f Stakes

Prize Money: -

CAPE ALAVA (1) Had difficulty when 4th last run here. Giving another chance here and drawn nicely. Rates a winning chance. TOUCH ME AGAIN (5) First run back from a break. Brave effort to win narrowly last time at Milano. Jockey Dario Di Tocco rates highly aboard. Can get the job done. DOCTOR STRANGE (2) First up and competitive effort when 3rd first up last preparation at Rome. Jockey A Varsi is in top form for this stable. Cannot underestimate. DOPPIORUM (3) Only fair when 5th last time at this venue but was a debutant last start. Take on trust.

Started $51.00 and below standard effort when 5th last time at this track but having second career run. Unfortunately, it seems unlikely.
