Seven-year-old SOFFIO (5) provided best after a four month break scoring by 3L contesting a 1500m event at Livorno a month ago. Finds ideal opportunity to follow up. Leading player. VENTO D'ESTATE (2) made the frame twice including a solid 4L third in a 1500m race at Livorno before a below par 23L defeat tackling 1600m at Merano three weeks ago. Expected to bounce back. SPARTANO (1) brings a pair of placings from the last four results. Resumes after a spell of three-and-a-half months having finished off last preparation managing a decent 3.5L fourth trying 1500m here during June. Holds claims. CONFORMIST (3) rates next best.
