SEA TALES (5) stepped out for his debut over 1600m at this track back on December 15 and finished fifth. He will be better for the experience, and he can take this out. RAUL BILL (1) is back at the races for the first time since December 6. Worth noting, he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1600m at San Isidro. Rates highly and makes plenty of appeal. VETIVER (6) could only manage a modest effort 2 runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1600m at this track, beaten only by a head. Finds a suitable race and can find the winner's circle. PROTEUS MARO (3) finished third last start at the first run back from a spell over 1600m at this track, beaten 1.75 lengths. Will benefit from that outing. Capable of another top-three outcome.
