Verdict

KIRIEL (3) has two wins and two minor placings from five outings this campaign. Found a couple better last start in Group 3 class at this track over 5f. Tackling a more suitable race this time so she is a major player. BARBACOA KEY (4) has been racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid second in Group 3 grade at this track over 5f. Takes on much easier opposition this time. Well placed and should be in the finish. LAGOA AZUL (1) was a big last start winner by 4 lengths over today's course and distance when first-up from a break last start. Needs to be at her best to beat this field but she can get the job done again. REBENCA (5) did a great job of scoring by 2 lengths over this course and distance when first-up from a spell last time out. She has the scope to go on with it now.
