Merano Race 3

1m Hcap

Prize Money: -

IDENTIFIED (1) Amongst the placegetters when 3rd last run around here and will be well suited at the distance. Likely to be well placed early. Prominent showing expected and won't be far off them. HOLY DAY (5) Really dug deep when winning last time at this venue and drawn well. M Mammano Lupo does know the horse very well and demonstrating upward trajectory in recent races. Winning claims. MAPONUS (4) Finished 5th last start around here. Looking past the last run and has a positive draw. Riccardo Belluco is a suitable booking. In good order this preparation. Not out of this. POLEMUSA (6) Finished 4th last time at the track. T Burchi is a strong choice aboard. Include in all exotics.

Jumped at $9.50 and came in 5th last start at this venue. Looking past the last run and will try to take advantage of the draw. Riccardo Belluco rates highly. A threat to the other main hopes.

Secured the win by a slim margin last time around here and will appreciate a good draw. Jockey M Mammano Lupo has been successful before. Dropping weight. Will show up at the business end.
