ROSE THURN (3) Racing fresh after a break. Failed to threaten last time at Florence. Has the potential to improve sharply and showing consistent performance in races. Maikol Arras is a bonus. Won't be far away. JED ROAD (2) Was first to greet the judge when winning last run around here and will be well suited at the distance. On a winning streak the last 2 starts. Gets a chance to win. STARLIT SPICE (7) Towards the tail last time at Milano. Has the ability to turn things around. Showing great form since coming back from a spell. Dario Di Tocco is highly regarded. Each way. VALUTA STRANIERA (1) Did well when 3rd last time at this venue and will benefit with the weight drop. Ga Sanna is an advantage but back in trip. Don't overlook as is capable of a big run.

Finished 3rd last time around here and will appreciate the drop in weight. In good order this preparation but coming back in distance. Ga Sanna is a pivotal booking. Marginal chance.

Back from a spell. Towards the rear last time at Florence. Has the potential to improve sharply and can find a nice position from the draw. Solid career start. Strong prospects.
