Panama Race 5 - 6 1/2F Stakes
DULCE GUSTO (7) sets the benchmark after a 3rd at Panama over 1106m, beaten 6.25L, and a prior 2nd over 1207m by 1L; consistent this season and draws slightly better. MOLECULAR (3) is a key chance stepping to 1308m after 4th over 1106m last time and a 3rd over 1207m two back. CON PASO FIRME (4) resumes off 105 days and drops to 49kg; earlier form includes a 2nd over 1408m and a close 5th over 1207m, which reads well. GOOD MOMENTS (6) was 7th last start but did place closer over 1207m two back and can improve up in trip. Leading hopes: Dulce Gusto (7), Molecular (3), Con Paso Firme (4).
