Florence Race 2

6 1/2f Hcap

Prize Money: -

KURONIO (4) Game effort to win narrowly last run at this venue and strong performer at this trip in the past. Has to be strongly considered. SIR MORE (6) Showed promise when winning last time here but has to carry more weight this time. Can't knock the form winning 2 on the trot. Respect. YES OF COURSE (8) Strong performance to win last start around here and has a good draw. Maikol Arras usually performs well for this stable. Genuine winning chance. BEAUTY OF TUSCANY (2) Ran 6th last start here. Has the potential to improve sharply and gets the perfect draw. Good to see Dario Di Tocco is jumping on and dropping weight. Big danger.

Was $5.00 and finished 6th last start at this venue. Has the potential to improve sharply and has minimal work to do from the draw. A threat to the other main hopes.

Bold effort to win last start here and has a positive draw. Jockey Maikol Arras and trainer Mario Canu are a pair that can't be ignored. One of the punters top hopes.
