OTTANESE (3) Towards the rear last time at Florence. Happy to forgive that run. Maikol Arras takes the reins today. Can take this out. SOPRAN TUCANO (5) Was fighting out the finish when winning last time at the track. On a winning streak the last 2 attempts. Good to see Federico Bossa is jumping on. Expect to go close. IMPRESSIVE ROYAL (2) Unsighted last start at Milano but has drawn to do little work. Salvatore Sulas and Pierantonio Convertino link well together. Will be down in distance. Worth a ticket. CONTE ATTILIO (7) Unsighted last start at Milano but proven performer at this trip. Jockey Dario Vargiu and trainer Grizzetti Galoppo are a promising combination. Use betting as best guide.
