Palermo Race 5 - 1M Stakes
NORTE (7) scored by half a length last start over this journey in Group 3 class at La Plata. He won his only start here 3 back, and he is expected to measure up again. On top for us. AMUNI (2) ran fourth at his latest appearance over 1600m at La Plata, clocking in 1.5 lengths from the winner. Will prove tough to beat. DON ZAHIR (3) turned in a fine effort to score by 5 lengths at this course and distance last start in a much improved run. Meeting a deeper field this time, but he can get the job done again. JARDIN SECRETO (8) finished third last start at the first run back from a spell over 1600m at San Isidro, beaten 3.5 lengths. Has started twice here over the trip, and has yet to miss the placings. Tackling a deeper field this time, but he is good enough to make a big impact. Include in all top 4 combos.

Racing well recently. Comes off a 43 day let-up. Most recently 4th of 7 at San Isidro in LR on January 25 over 1400m, 5 len behind Sargento Morris with 54.5kg at $4.60. Before that 2nd of 10 at San Isidro in the G3 Invasor on December 28 over 1400m, 7 len behind Colifato Novo carrying 54.5kg at $10.45. Better than that recent ordinary performance suggests.
