EL PERRO NEGRO (2) is a 38-start maiden struggling to break through but has been in the money at the last couple of outings, the latest when third over 1100m at this track. Has the pace and the right draw to find a good early position. Likely to feature. SMALL SHY (11) ran a better race last start to finish a close second over 1000m at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Likely improver with strong prospects. SEVEN POINTS (7) has switched yards since finishing fifth a week-and-a-half ago over 1000m at Hipodromo Chile. One of the genuine hopes in the race. OLIMPIC BLUE (10) finished 3 lengths away in fourth at his last appearance over 1000m at this track on February 12. Worth including in this suitable contest.
