Verdict

GALANA MARIA ESTHER (7) ran below expectations last time at Rosario, finishing sixth and beaten 7 lengths starting at $7. Steps up a level but she is worth another chance. ASOMBRAME (8) was always forward and boxed on to finish fourth over 5 ½f at La Plata last time. Has a solid record here over this journey. Should be prominent from the outset. Will prove tough to beat. GANG FLOWER (6) was sent out at $15.60 last time but ran above expectations and won over 5f at this track. Winning rider Leo Nicolas Acuna stays aboard. Sure to be competitive. GRITALA (5) turned in a fine effort to win by 6 lengths at today's track and distance last start to maintain her good form of late. Meets a stronger field but she is good enough to cope.
