Merano Race 1

2m 1/2f Stakes

Prize Money: -

IRFAN (5) Blitzed its rivals when winning last start here and honest performer putting a tidy record together. Can't knock the form winning 3 on the trot. Will give a big sight. FAIR MASAR (3) Resumes from a spell. Dominant winner last start around here and putting a tidy record together so far. Key player. VASTA PRATERIA (8) Thrashed the field when winning last start at this venue and can find a nice position from the draw. J Bartos and Matteo Bonetti are a formidable team. Gets a chance to win. DOUBLE BE (2) Finished 3rd last time in a chase at Auteuil and putting a tidy record together so far. Been in the placegetters each start this preparation. Underrated.

Jumped at $29.00 and average at best when 6th last start at this venue. Looks highly doubtful.

Was dominant when winning last start around here and promising career start. Maintaining a perfect record the last 3 attempts. A Pollioni rates highly aboard. No surprise to see solid support in the betting.

Brave effort to win narrowly last time at this venue and solid career start. In good racing form since resuming from a spell and showing improvement in recent outings. Nice price for the value seekers.
