Palermo Race 5 - 1M 2F Stakes
TRUE REWARD (3) finished out of the money two starts back, then was beaten 2.75 lengths when fourth in a 2000m contest at La Plata three weeks ago. Tackling a deeper field this time, but he is up to the task. LEBANO VIC (2) started at $5.80 last time and ran below expectations, finishing fifth and beaten 15 lengths at San Isidro over 2000m. Likely improver with strong prospects. THITON (5) did little and finished well back over 1800m at this track last start, after finishing fourth on debut at this track the run before. Well placed, and there is no reason he cannot figure in the top 3 this time. KISS ME SOUND (6) hit the frame two starts ago at this track but ran below par last time when sixth over a mile on the turf here. Well placed and should be about the mark.
