San Sebastian Race 3

1m 6f Hcap

Stake: -

ANIOL (1) Nice effort when winning last run at Madrid but hoping that the added weight won't hurt. Running with confidence this campaign. Jockey Vaclav Janacek is a strong choice aboard. Has to be strongly considered. ISTANBUL (2) Ran well when 3rd last run at this venue. One of the major players. RISUENA (3) Shot clear to win last time at Mont De Marsan and on an upward trajectory in recent races. Will be positive in the run early. Each way. LUCIO VERO (4) Finished 4th last run at Mont De Marsan. Should improve from the last run. Will be giving the leaders a big start. Will be around the mark at odds.

Bold effort to win last run at Madrid but has more weight to carry. Jockey Vaclav Janacek rates highly aboard. Looking sharp on the track this campaign. Nice price for the value seekers.

Jumped at $6.50 and not in contention when 4th last start at Madrid but can find a nice position from the draw. Should muster plenty of early speed. Will need to lift.
