Verdict

YLUCION CAUS (9) has a good record at the trip, and he improved sharply on his seventh two starts back at San Isidro with a win over 7f at this track three-and-a-half weeks ago, getting home by a nose. Likely to be there at the finish again. DON CERVANTES (5) ran fourth at his latest appearance over 1m at La Plata, finishing 3.5 lengths from the winner. Sure to measure up. THE BEST ROCK (4) found plenty when winning by half a length three runs back at San Isidro. Rates as of the leading top 3 chances. COSTO CERO (6) returned from a spell three-and-a-half weeks ago when he was a solid fifth over 7f at this track. Strips fitter and can figure in the finish, so keep him safe.
