Verdict

AQUIMAN (1) resumes from a spell of three months and is having his first outing under new trainer Nestor Klocker. Finished fourth at this track over 5f at the opening run last time in work. Key runner while fresh. PICAFLOR EMPER (7) opened this campaign last start with a third, beaten 2.5 lengths, over 5f at this track. Sure to prove tough to beat. AZZURRO KEY (2) has switched yards since scoring by 3 lengths at this track over 5f on April 5. Solid top-three hope. AIRES DE GLORIA (6) returned from a spell two-and-a-half weeks ago when he was beaten 5 lengths into sixth over 5f at this track. Fitter so can figure in the finish.
