Las Piedras Race 3 - Franquy Rails (2016)
GARUFA SOY (4) has been in the market at his last couple of runs but failed to threaten, the latest effort a modest fifth at this track over 2000m. The testing material on his best form. EXPLOTA EXPLOTA (5) is returning from a spell of ten weeks. Finished fifth at this track over 1500m at the first run last prep. Now with a new trainer Sebastian San Martin. Rates highly and makes plenty of appeal. FRAGUADO (1) has switched yards since finishing second six weeks ago over 2000m at this track. One of the genuine hopes in the race. BOLT (6) is back at the races for the first time since November 30. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1200m at Colonia. Now under the care of new trainer Lourdes Andrea Gonzalez. One to consider.
