Gavea Race 7 - Premio Sassafras
LUNGAROTTI (4) won his maiden three starts back and is nearing another victory with placings at his last two runs, most recently when second over 1500m at this track. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. Will be the one to beat for us. TUBKAAK (6) resumes from a spell of eight months after two solid runs during the maiden campaign, the latest a second over 1500m at this track. Sure to have improved over the spell and can get off the mark this time. TRANSLATE (2) raced once in the maiden prep at this track over 1400m back on September 29 2025. The early money suggests that he can be a threat in this. Keep safe. DON NICO (9) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when third over 1500m at this track. Each way prospects.
