Palermo Race 11

Stake: $19,496

MALDITO SEA (6) did a great job to score by one length over today's course and distance when resuming from a layoff last start. It doesn't get any easier, but on his best form, he is the one to beat again. MANOLE (7) did a great job to score by 0.8 lengths over today's course and distance when first-up from a layoff last start. This looks well within his grasp. GOLDEN JET (3) has switched yards since finishing sixth seven-and-a-half weeks ago over 1000m at this track. Can measure up for the new barn. LEMORO (1) finished second last start at the first run back from a spell over 1100m at San Isidro, beaten one length. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including six wins. Each way value. Something for the Multiples: MAMBO ITALIANO (2)
