EL TREN BALA (6) is a eight-start maiden who has been in the money at his last couple of runs, the latest when third over 2000m at San Isidro. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Will prove tough to beat. PODER GLOBAL (7) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when second over 2000m at this track. Should be prominent despite the awkward gate. Likely improver with strong prospects. MISIL TALK (8) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 6 lengths when fourth in a 1600m contest at this track six-and-a-half weeks ago. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. ILEAN RIDE (5) has been in the placings three times from eight outings. Last start finished fourth over 2000m at this track. Has a solid record here with three top-three finishes to his name. Can measure up.
