Gavea Race 1 - Premio Much Better - 1994
XUA (5) closed last campaign with six consecutive minor placings and is back today after a break of three-and-a-half months. Has a good association with Henderson Dos Santos Fernandes, with a run of three top-three results. Should be hard to stop. NONPAREIL (6) is a maiden with three minor placings to her name. Could not improve on that record when resuming last start, winding up in sixth over 1500m at this track. Was in the placings at her only other second-up run. Likely to push forward and race on the pace. Expecting a bold showing. PANAMERICAN (3) finished second when resuming from a spell last start over 1500m at this track. Ready to go one better. NINNA TOWN (1) tackles a turf track for the first time today on the back of a solid second over 1400m at Taruma when fresh from a break. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Must be respected.
