Verdict

EASING SAINT (4) missed the placings when resuming two runs back then did a good job last start but found one better over 5f at San Isidro, beaten only one length. Stepping up a level this time but on his best form, he is capable of a big performance. QUE TAL OREJA (16) is back from a spell of nine weeks. Closed last prep with a sixth over 5f at La Plata. Credentials hard to knock. ROMULO FIRST (15) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 4f at Azul, beaten 4 lengths. Finds a tougher race, but he has the ability to test this field. AUTHENTIC (1) returns after a spell of four-and-a-half months. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 5f at this track. One to consider.
