Verdict

CARAMELO DUBA (11) finished second last start over 6 ½f at this track to make it five minor placings from 13 runs. Goes well here with two top-three finishes to his credit. Among the top chances. FORJAR (4) finished third, beaten 1.5 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 6 ½f at this track. Placed to advantage and can run a bold race. GRANMARIN (10) fought on well for third last start over 5 ½f at La Plata, making it two minor placings in a row. Likely to be right in the finish again. TERRIBLE KING (9) ran a better race last start, finishing 3 lengths away in sixth over 6 ½f at this track. Finds a nice race and can bounce back.
