MANTENIDO (9) has switched yards since finishing third six weeks ago over 1000m at Villa Maria. Sure to take beating. AS IT WAS (5) was out of the money on debut two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1000m at Villa Maria, beaten 13 lengths into fourth. It doesn't get any easier but on his best form he is capable of testing his rivals. EMPENOSO BOMB (3) has not raced since his debut on May 24 over 1000m at this track when he finished seventh, beaten 10 lengths. Expected to be right there at the business end. ROTERDAM (10) is a two-year-old colt on debut from the stable of Martin Gustavo Herrera. By Puerto Escondido from Enoka. Worth watching for a betting push.
