Verdict

None of these inspire confidence but a token vote is given to BULL FIVE. He's gone close a couple of times on Polytrack and last month's comeback run over too short a trip here will have blown any cobwebs away. Praxios is another whose earlier form at this track gives him a chance but he hasn't raced since last May, while Rocky Rebel also looks capable of getting involved stepping up in trip on his return from a lay-off. It's difficult to make a serious case for any of the remainder.
