Merano Race 1

1M 1 1/2F Stakes

Prize Money: -

LACOMTE (6) Fresh today after a 58 week break. Towards the rear last start at Milano. Likely to bounce back. In the mix. ACTION PAINTING (1) Racing fresh after a break of 34 weeks. Underperformed when 8th last time at the track. Jockey M Mammano Lupo and trainer Raffaele Romano make an imposing pair. Can win this. KAZZAM (5) Backing up quickly. Finished 4th last run at this track. Expected to rebound but will be down in distance. Strong chance. PLUTONE (9) Mediocre performance when 6th last start around here but drawn well. Suggest each way.
