Verdict
After early promise, Lago Indiano began his handicap career off 75 but is now down to 47 and not out of this. Via Mia is not much better than a plater on turf but is better on Polytrack and has run well on her last two starts here. Tax Dodger has only had one run since November 2009 and may need the outing and Desert Ben is better known as a sprinter though he's performed with credit over this trip in the past. HARRY DAYS can take this as he won over a mile here in November and though now 7lb higher and racing over a shorter trip he has plenty of pace and hasn't had much racing for his age.
