Race comment
OUR LUCIANO (4) was highly competitive during the Miracle Mile carnival last campaign, highlighted a G3 win in the Paleface Adios and a luckless fourth from the outside barrier in the Chariots of Fire. He flies fresh with two wins and a placing from three attempts and will be ready to go off a solid trial. HORN PLAYER (7) continued his strong form from the Regional Championships series when runner-up in this class last week. Draws wider but is building a good record here. FRANCO TYSON (3) was out of the money last start but had strong form prior including back-to-back wins at this venue along with a couple of placings in this grade. Draws well so worth another chance. JAY OK (2) will find this easier than recent attempts and can take advantage of a low draw.

OUR LUCIANO (4) was highly competitive during the Miracle Mile carnival last campaign, highlighted a G3 win in the Paleface Adios and a luckless fourth from the outside barrier in the Chariots of Fire. He flies fresh with two wins and a placing from three attempts and will be ready to go off a solid trial. HORN PLAYER (7) continued his strong form from the Regional Championships series when runner-up in this class last week. Draws wider but is building a good record here. FRANCO TYSON (3) was out of the money last start but had strong form prior including back-to-back wins at this venue along with a couple of placings in this grade. Draws well so worth another chance. JAY OK (2) will find this easier than recent attempts and can take advantage of a low draw.

Race comment
OUR LUCIANO (4) was highly competitive during the Miracle Mile carnival last campaign, highlighted a G3 win in the Paleface Adios and a luckless fourth from the outside barrier in the Chariots of Fire. He flies fresh with two wins and a placing from three attempts and will be ready to go off a solid trial. HORN PLAYER (7) continued his strong form from the Regional Championships series when runner-up in this class last week. Draws wider but is building a good record here. FRANCO TYSON (3) was out of the money last start but had strong form prior including back-to-back wins at this venue along with a couple of placings in this grade. Draws well so worth another chance. JAY OK (2) will find this easier than recent attempts and can take advantage of a low draw.

Race comment
OUR LUCIANO (4) was highly competitive during the Miracle Mile carnival last campaign, highlighted a G3 win in the Paleface Adios and a luckless fourth from the outside barrier in the Chariots of Fire. He flies fresh with two wins and a placing from three attempts and will be ready to go off a solid trial. HORN PLAYER (7) continued his strong form from the Regional Championships series when runner-up in this class last week. Draws wider but is building a good record here. FRANCO TYSON (3) was out of the money last start but had strong form prior including back-to-back wins at this venue along with a couple of placings in this grade. Draws well so worth another chance. JAY OK (2) will find this easier than recent attempts and can take advantage of a low draw.
