ESTADOS UNIDOS (6) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well last time at this track, finishing second and only 2 lengths from the winner at the end of 1600m. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. PURO AZAR (4) missed the placings two starts back then ran a better race and finished 6 lengths away in fourth last time out over 1400m at this track. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. EL DIRECTOR (3) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a spell on 15/01/2025, finishing fifth and beaten 10 lengths over 2000m at this track. Looks a strong top-three prospect. SALDO A FAVOR (1) finished a 4 length fifth on dirt at Palermo two back then followed up with a minor placing on turf at this track over 1600m three-and-a-half weeks ago. Leopoldo Mateo Armoha has registered two minor placings when on board. One of the better hopes.
