CONTRA PRONOSTICO (8) is going better than form suggests, last time finishing a 3 length fourth over 1000m at this track. Has the early speed to cross from out wide. Best figures should see him run well. OPRESO (6) ran below his best last start when beaten 8 lengths into 12th from a wide draw over today's course and distance. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. Will prove tough to beat. FANTASY RIM (7) found one marginally better last start over 1200m at San Isidro after being prominent throughout. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. EL LUCIANO (5) finished third last time over 1000m at this track when resuming from a spell, beaten half a length. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including three wins. This is a nice race and can find winning form.
