Verdict
With question mark against all the contestants for varying reasons this looks the most difficult race on the card to solve despite the lack of runners. The current form of Lucayan Dancer, Zawrak, Miss Oppulence and Medallist is poor to be polite while Martin House has proved ineffective on the ground. Which, by default leaves Indian Solitaire who despite running some good races on this surface has a solitary maiden victory for his efforts in two seasons. He is the choice provided he is fit for his first run of the campaign though stakes are advised to be small.
