HOLY DAY (4) Tidy effort when 2nd last start here. Added confidence with M Mammano Lupo doing the steering. One of the major players. TWIN SECRET (5) Was all too good winning last run around here and goes down in weight. Won last 2 on the bounce. Jockey J Zanchi rates highly aboard. Good prospects. SUGAR MIRROR (7) Came in 4th last time at Varese. Likely to bounce back. Capable of forward showing and can be competitive. MAPONUS (1) Ran 3rd last time here and gets a favourable draw. Has been a model of consistency since returning from a break. Might be ridden for luck. Up to these.

Placed 2nd last time at this track and suited by the weight drop. Should muster plenty of early toe. Looking sharp on the track this preparation. Prefer a race with softer competition.

Amongst the placegetters when 2nd last start at the track. M Mammano Lupo has been successful previously. Good enough chance at a very tempting price.

Got the cash when winning last run here and will benefit with the weight drop. Undefeated last 2 runs. J Zanchi is an advantage. Can take this out.
