Siracusa Race 2

1m 2f Stakes

Prize Money: -

TERRIBLE LAND (6) Placed 3rd last time at this track and have to respect the form at this distance. Jockey Daniele Scalora is very comfortable steering. No shock to see a win. WIND FIRE STORM (7) Sub-standard effort when 7th last run at this venue. Giuseppe Cannarella and Antonio Pappalardo command respect as a team. Capable of forward showing and can be competitive. CRIMINAL ROMANCE (1) Won by a big margin last run here. Has to be included. NEILETA (4) First up and snagged a narrow win first up last preparation here. Dropping weight. Can measure up to this company.
