Varese Race 5

5f Stakes

Prize Money: -

SOPRAN INES (4) Racing as a debutant 3yo by City Light for trainer Marco Gonnelli. Jockey Ga Sanna is a plus. Market as guide. GHARMA SUTRA (2) Unsighted last run at Milano. Can show a better performance this time. Should get going late. More confidence with jockey Dario Di Tocco guiding the horse. No surprise to see a forward showing and one of the main hopes in this race. LETHAL NIGIO (3) Failed to threaten last start at Milano. Should improve and ideal distance as proven previously. In good shape this campaign and gets the perfect draw. Solid place bet prospects. VIRGIN'S COLT (5) On a quick back up. Sub-standard effort when 6th last start at this venue but gets a favourable draw. Jockey G Arnese riding for trainer Marco Gonnelli command respect. Could run a place.

Towards the tail last start at Milano. Should improve and suited at this distance historically. In top racing shape since coming back from a spell and has the ideal draw. Can lift.

Backs up quickly. Was $13.00 and disappointing outing when 6th last start at the track but has a positive draw. Jockey G Arnese and trainer Marco Gonnelli work well together. Tough ask.
