Gavea Race 1 - Premio Cheikh
BRIA (6) produced a reasonable effort when third last start over 1200m at this track, beaten 2.75 lengths. That followed a win at this track the start prior. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time. PENTAGONO (1) had been racing well with two consecutive placings before last start managing only fourth over 1400m at this track. Likely to push forward and race on the pace. Likely to feature. NUMA (7) has been racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid third at this track over 1400m. Record at this track is strong. Sure to be competitive. FIREHOUSE (2) ran a better race last start, finishing 6 lengths away in fifth over 1200m at this track. Nicely placed to find some form.
