EVITANDO EL ABLANDE (7) won his maiden six starts back and is nearing another victory with placings at his last two runs, most recently when second over 1400m at Palermo. Facundo Marcelo Coria stays on. Bold showing expected. AVERY ROAD (4) is a promising type who hasn't raced since finishing seventh over 1200m at this track on September 18. Has never missed the frame when fresh from a spell in two starts. Pablo Aramis Capra stays on. Bold showing expected. EL METALERO (1) ran well despite being friendless in betting when resuming last time over 1400m at this track, finishing second and beaten 1.5 lengths at long odds. Has the speed to be prominent. One of the main contenders. SALGO (9) ran below expectations last time at this track, finishing fifth and beaten 8 lengths. Should be competitive in this suitable race.
