Rome Race 6

7f Hcap

Prize Money: -

SERGEI STORM (2) First run back from a 28 week break. Was a comprehensive winner last time at Napoli and demonstrating upward trajectory in recent races. Underrated. ESTROVERSO (1) Honest race when 2nd last run at Varese but up in weight. Jockey F Branca and trainer Stefano Botti are a combination worth following. Appears well in this. NALU (4) First up after 10 weeks and looked good when 2nd first up last preparation at Napoli. Good career start. Has to be strongly considered. INDIO BLACK (6) First run back from a break of 26 weeks. Finished 8th last time at Napoli. Has the talent to rebound quickly. Looks to be value.

Ran 2nd last run at Varese but will have to carry more weight. Jockey F Branca usually performs well for this stable. Strong claims in this.

Back from a 28 week break. Was strong to the line when winning last time at Napoli on a heavy rated track and getting better in recent performances. Good enough chance at a very tempting price.

Jumped at $12.00 and disappointing display when 8th last run at Livorno. Ale Mereu is highly regarded. Expected to settle towards the rear. Can surprise at a nice price.

Resuming after a spell. In the money when 2nd last run at Tagliacozzo and has minimal work to do from the draw. Will appreciate the drop in weight. Entitled to be a big price.
