Verdict

IL BELLO BEALS (1) was nudged out twice over 7f before a plainer run in similar company. Has a senior hoop aboard today, and no surprise to see him back on track. ENCOSTA DE MONEY (3) got back and didn't get warm in the same contest. Has been heading in the right direction prior, has the blinkers back on and a better gate. Has winning claims. KALLAHTI (2) placed in that race at big odds. The 4lbs claim remains handy, but she gets back and the inside barrier is against. Can't be ruled out regardless. DIAMAS (7) started in the mark against the above trio but didn't finish it off. Fitter now and can get closer.
