Panama Race 3

1m 1/2f Stakes

Prize Money: -

PANAMA HAPPY (4) Goes well when fresh. Pulled away to win last start at the track and hard to fault at the distance. J Carrion is a key booking. Major chance. IMPERATOR (1) Won by a big margin last time at this venue and drawn beautifully. Maintaining a perfect record the last 2 starts but has to cope with a weight increase. Right in the thick of it and is a major player. CAPTAIN MCGHAN (3) Has multiple wins when resuming. Nice run when 3rd last run at this venue and back over more ground. Jockey R Bustos is in form but going up in weight. Key player. FIRST FRONT (6) Mediocre display when 6th last time at this track but stepping back up in trip. Y Lasso rates highly aboard. In good shape since resuming from a break. Goes close.

Blitzed its rivals when winning last time around here and will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Made it 2 wins on the bounce. Winning chance.

Goes well first up. Placed 3rd last run around here and going back up in trip. R Bustos rates highly but carrying more weight than last time. Will attract plenty of interest.

Strong record when resuming. Spaced the field to win last start around here and proven performer at this trip. J Carrion is a suitable booking. Worth a lot of thought in this race.

Was $5.50 and average at best when 4th last start at the track but strong performer at the distance. In strong racing shape since returning from a break. Has a credible chance.

Started at $2.00 and mediocre performance when 6th last time here but returns to a rise in trip. Good to see Y Lasso is jumping on. Significant value and can go close.
