MERANO STAKES
Purse $75,259. TB The Criterium d†Autunno, a Grade 1 for jumpers. The two French raiders bring particularly interesting credentials. DOUBLE BE (2) is progressing and looks ready to make his presence felt even at this level. Satalia†s mare FLUER DE VIE (4) has already contested a Group 3 in France and was given a gentle comeback with this race firmly in mind. She has to be respected. Aichner†s team is headed by IRFAN (5), who is flying at present and fully deserves this opportunity against stronger opposition. He is our first choice. VASTA PRATERIA (8) takes an immediate step up in class after routing the opposition on her hurdling debut and, if she has improved her jumping, she represents an intriguing option at attractive odds.

MERANO HANDICAP
Purse $14,823. TB A particularly competitive and wide-open amateur riders†contest. KAMMEEL (2) returns from a short break but is in flying form and again deserves maximum respect. Among those towards the foot of the weights, BLAZE OF GLORY (9) and POLEMUSA (10) would be very well treated if they improve for their recent runs, while DERGANINO (8) would be extremely difficult to beat if returning to even 70% of the level he once showed on the Flat. UNIVERSOEMARMO (4) is in excellent form and must not be overlooked. (SEELCTION 2-10-4) 1M

MERANO STAKES
Purse $114,030. TB Gran Corsa Siepi di Merano, another highly competitive Grade 1 over hurdles. French raider OLYMPIC STORY (3) appeals after a promising comeback in a Listed chase at Compiègne and has enough class to make his presence felt over hurdles as well. Looking back to last year†s edition, mare KAJA (2) was given a gentle comeback over this course and retains strong claims despite facing plenty of opposition, including her own stable companions. Among them, SILUTO (9) is in red-hot form and could even reverse the established pecking order. Others to consider include MAURICIUS (5), who benefits from a top-class rider, and RISK DU BRIZAIS (8) in what looks a wide-open contest. (SELECTION: 3-2-9) 2 1/2M

MERANO HANDICAP
Purse $14,823. TB A particularly competitive and wide-open amateur riders†contest. KAMMEEL (2) returns from a short break but is in flying form and again deserves maximum respect. Among those towards the foot of the weights, BLAZE OF GLORY (9) and POLEMUSA (10) would be very well treated if they improve for their recent runs, while DERGANINO (8) would be extremely difficult to beat if returning to even 70% of the level he once showed on the Flat. UNIVERSOEMARMO (4) is in excellent form and must not be overlooked. (SEELCTION 2-10-4) 1M

MERANO STAKES
Purse $114,030. TB Gran Corsa Siepi di Merano, another highly competitive Grade 1 over hurdles. French raider OLYMPIC STORY (3) appeals after a promising comeback in a Listed chase at Compiègne and has enough class to make his presence felt over hurdles as well. Looking back to last year†s edition, mare KAJA (2) was given a gentle comeback over this course and retains strong claims despite facing plenty of opposition, including her own stable companions. Among them, SILUTO (9) is in red-hot form and could even reverse the established pecking order. Others to consider include MAURICIUS (5), who benefits from a top-class rider, and RISK DU BRIZAIS (8) in what looks a wide-open contest. (SELECTION: 3-2-9) 2 1/2M
