Varese Race 2 - 1m 2 1/2f Stakes
KUKLIA (7) First up from a break of 17 weeks and honest race when 3rd first up last preparation at Pisa. Dario Di Tocco rates highly and solid career start. Will be competitive. PROVENZA (8) Towards the tail last time at Milano. Should improve from the last run and showing consistent performance in races. Can give this a shake. HEVESI (6) 3yo debutant sired by Albert Dock for Marco Gonnelli. Respect the betting. CALICO ROCK (4) Ran well when 2nd last start at Merano and getting better in recent performances. Likely to be well placed early. Will be there at the finish.

Was $12.00 and fairly underwhelming when 7th last start here but facing a rise in trip. Have to respect the recent Grizzetti Galoppo form and drawn beautifully. Needs to find a lot more.

Fresh after a break. Unsighted last run at Milano but was a debutant last start. Andrea Mezzatesta and Marco Gonnelli demand respect when they team up. Prefer in a much weaker race.

Started at $34.00 and lacklustre showing when 6th last run at Merano but fitter for debut run. Form will be tested here.

First up from a break of 17 weeks and did well when 3rd first up last preparation at Pisa. Dario Di Tocco adds value and putting a tidy record together. Definite winning chance.

Towards the rear last time at Milano. Should improve from the last run and honest performer putting a tidy record together. Should go close.
