EL GAGUI (4) improved last time out, finishing one length from the winner in third at the end of 1000m at this track. Goes up a rung or two but he is good enough to figure in the finish. TEATRO GRIEGO (12) again failed to feature last start, finishing fifth and beaten 5 lengths over 1000m at this track. Has the speed to overcome the draw. Leading contender. REAL ENVIDO (7) is back from a spell of four-and-a-half months. Raced once last campaign and finished third over 1000m at this track. Should be prominent from the outset. Will give backers a great sight. MAXIMUS MATIAS (14) wasn't far off maiden success before a break of ten weeks, finishing the campaign with a minor placing over 1200m at this track. Launched last prep with a minor placing at this track over 1300m. Has ability and must be included in calculations.
