He returns to the track where he was third in the Dardo Rocha (G1) after his outstanding performance in the Gran Premio Carlos Pellegrini (G1).

LA PLATA - The long-distance runners will be the stars of the day this Tuesday at Hipódromo de La Plata, with the 2000 meters Clásico Uruguay as the object of desire. For 3 years old and up, with an embarrassing prize of 4,665,000 pesos for the winner (in Argentina, it is fair to remember, it is almost run for the love of art) and 7 entries.
The opportunity seems to be ideal for Forest Gump in the way to retuirn to the winners circle, seeking to consolidate the significant improvement in his level that has experienced in recent times. Winner of the Clasico Organizacion Sudamericana de Fomento del SPC (G3), then had an excellent performance in the Gran Premio Dardo Rocha (G1), crossing the line in third behind Treasure Island (Treasure Beach) and Crazy Talent (Equal Talent).
With that PP's, his connections were encouraged in the Gran Premio Carlos Pellegrini (G1), at San Isidro's turf track, and the balance was very good, with the gray finishing third just 7 3/4 lengths behind Intense for Me (Fortify) and El Kodigo (Equal Stripes), in front of 13 rivals. It is hard to see the son of Hurricane Cat losing now, but, as races are races, he will have to do his part.
The most dangerous opponent for the candidates is another rising horse like Rumor de Fuego (Daddy Long Legs), who comes from a very good performance here in the Clásico Clausura (G2), finishing second to the 3yo Wages (Lucullan), by 2 1/2 lengths.
Look Portal (Portal del Alto), who has been making solid steps in the stayers division, with samples such as his second places in the clásicos Calidoscopio (L) and Domingo Faustino Sarmiento (L) or his fresher third to Endor Rye (Endorsement) in the Clásico Ayacucho (G3). Another fact: in the Rocha he was sixth 1 1/4 lengths behind the candidate...
Winner of the Selección de Potrancas (G1) in 2023, Lágrimas y Sonrisas (Le Blues) did not run at all in the Copa de Plata (G1) at San Isidro, and now returns to the track of her best results in pursuit of raising her head, although she is involved in a very complicated dance.
