Palermo Race 2 - 6F Stakes
ROMAN CALI (7) finished a sound fourth on dirt at this track two back. Switched to turf last time at San Isidro over 1200m and again missed the frame, finishing eighth. Best form stacks up nicely. Can improve sharply. GORRION KEY (1) is closing in on a win after two consecutive minor placings, the latest when second over 1200m at this track. Has a decent record at this trip with three minor placings from four tries and is right in this. AZUL CIELO (4) is an 8-start maiden who finished seventh at his most recent appearance over 1200m at La Plata. Solid top-three chance on his best figures. KING AND BOMB (6) finished ninth last time over 1200m at this track in a disappointing performance. Looks well placed in this modest field, so expect a better run this time.
