BRAZEN AIR (2) progressed nicely last start to finish a close second over 1200m at Follonica after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Worth noting Antonio Ferramosca goes aboard. Finds an easier assignment and can get the job done. BLACK WATCH (1) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a spell on 20/10/2024, finishing sixth and beaten 20 lengths over 2200m at Merano. Has ability and should be right in the finish. MAPONUS (6) is third up today. Turned in a better run last time when second, beaten 2.25 lengths, at this track over 1650m. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Sure to be competitive. DUBAI SOUND (3) comes here off a break of five months. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 1650m at this track. Yet to win first up but generally runs well with two minor placings from three tries. Lines up today for the first time for trainer Pobitzer Stampfl Lisa. Has to be respected.
