Maronas Race 4 - Van Cleef (1982)
SUSHI MAGNUM (2) opened this prep last start with a second, beaten 2.75 lengths, over 1100m at Rocha. Race sets up well for him. INSIGNIA (6) proved too strong two runs ago at Las Piedras. Couldn't follow that up last time out when sixth over 1300m at this track, beaten 5 lengths. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. TAP IT STATE (1) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when 11th over 1200m at this track. Best figures measure up nicely. Can do a lot better. CATAFUM (5) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a spell on January 6 2025, finishing 13th and beaten 20 lengths over 1100m at this track. Lines up today for the first time for trainer Lourdes Andrea Gonzalez. Looks a strong top-three prospect.

Most recently 6th of 10 at this track on February 1 over 1300m, 5 len behind Vamos Tilin carrying 58kg at $2.90. The start before that favourite; won by 5 len at Las Piedras January 4 over 1300m defeating Tonerre carrying 57kg at $3.40. Can make amends.
