Palermo Race 12 - 5F Stakes
GAROTINO (6) recorded another minor placing last time out, finishing only a head away in second over 1000m at this track. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. DON LEUCADIO (2) has been in great form with two placings in succession, most recently when beaten one length into third over 1000m at this track. Facing a tougher assignment, but he is good enough to figure in the finish. DON CHAROLA (3) resumes from a spell of three months. Looked close to a win before that break, finishing off with a minor placing over 1000m at San Isidro. Among the chances while fresh. VERDADERO TALENTO (1) is fitter for two runs back from a spell, progressing nicely last time to finish third, beaten half a length, at this track over 1000m. Has a high cruising speed. One of the better hopes.

Racing well recently. Last start 3rd of 17 at this track on April 17 over 1000m, on heavy track; 1.0 len behind Lord Force with 56.5kg at $10.15. The race before that 3rd of 9 at San Isidro on March 28 over 1100m, on a wet track; 2.5 len behind Chuck Buck carrying 56kg at $6.75. An inside draw is a big advantage. Winning prospects.

Jumped at long odds at debut, 12th of 14 at this track on April 4 over 1000m, 21 len behind Cuncos carrying 54kg at $33.45. Might need more time based on that poor debut.

Comes here off a 54-day let-up. Most recently 7th of 9 at San Isidro on March 8 over 1200m, 12 len behind El Enigma with 54.5kg at $8.30. The run before that ran on from midfield; 4th of 16 at San Isidro on February 7 over 1200m, 4.5 len behind Tsar with 54kg at $48.20. Cannot be ruled out despite a lacklustre effort last time.
