Luca Cumani - Cima De Triomphe

UK Press Association

Damien Oliver was impressed after partnering Luca Cumani's Cima De Triomphe in a racecourse gallop at Sandown.

Basaltico, who worked with Oliver's mount, is on course for a crack at the Geelong Cup on October 21 - a route Cumani took with Melbourne Cup runner-up Bauer 12 months ago - while Cima De Triomphe's aim is the Caulfield Cup on October 17.

Oliver failed to land Melbourne Cup glory for Cumani on Purple Moon and Mad Rush and he told www.ozeform.com: "It was a nice piece of work and I liked the way he was able to go to the other horse when I asked him for an effort."

He added: "The others were a bit lightly-framed but this horse is bigger and stronger and I liked the way he worked."
