ALAS DE ACERO (4) turned in a modest performance when tenth last time out over 1000m at this track, beaten 11 lengths. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time. SENOR EDUARDO (2) started at $4.60 last time and ran below expectations, finishing fifth and beaten 6 lengths at this track over 1000m. Likely improver with strong prospects. SECRETO LETAL (9) saluted at this track two runs ago. Not disgraced last time out when second over 1000m at this track, beaten 1.5 lengths. Has started two times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Finds a suitable race and can return to the winner's circle. CUMPARSERO KEY (8) is back from a spell of a year. Won on debut at the only appearance last prep, scoring in a 1000m contest at this track by 4 lengths. Has definite claims.
