WOODY'S BITE (3) Ran 5th last run at Rome. Happy to forgive that run and proven performer at this distance in the past. Maikol Arras is a key booking. Winning claims. ENCHOMIABYL BLACK (1) Finished 5th last start here. Has the ability to turn things around. In the mix. DESMOS (7) Got the upper hand late when winning last run at the track and carrying less weight this time. Can't knock the form winning 2 on the bounce. Genuine winning chance. CLAIM A GIFT (5) Amongst the placegetters when 2nd last start at Corridonia. Jockey Ale Mereu and trainer Riccardo Cangiano link well together. Should be going forward early. Has scope so do not ignore.

Looked good when 3rd last time around here and will appreciate a good draw. Claudio Colombi and Devis Grilli rate highly together. Will be giving the leaders a big start. Stands out as good value.

Nice run when 2nd last start at Corridonia. Jockey Ale Mereu and trainer Riccardo Cangiano are usually competitive when they team up. Should come to hand quickly. Respect the betting.

Started $67.00 and mediocre display when 10th last run at this venue but having second race start. Drawn nicely. This field likely to be too good.

Claimed a tight victory last run around here and will benefit with the weight drop. Unbeaten last 2 runs. Stefano Botti has been training plenty of winners recently. Good enough chance at a very tempting price.
