GIACOMO PUCCINI (3) is going well this time in work, including a last start win over 1100m at this track to bring up six wins from 10 runs in the campaign. Has a high cruising speed. Likely to feature. TRANSLUCIDO (8) turned in a fine effort to score by 2.25 lengths at today's course and distance last time out to make it two-for-two this prep. The engagement of Jaime Fabian Medina is noteworthy. Taking on a better field but he is up to the task. WHITE SPIRIT (5) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 3 lengths when fourth in a 1200m contest at this track nine days ago. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. ENCANTO VELOZ (7) missed the placings when resuming two runs back then didn't do any better last start when finishing 11th over 1200m at this track. Better than recent efforts suggest.
