        Verdict

        Leyte Gulf has solid claims on his second to Appeal over C&D last week, but a chance is taken on FANTINO. The latter finished a close-up third in a tougher race over track and trip in October and, with an outing over hurdles since, Pat Murphy's charge should be fit enough to throw down a challenge. Jamarjo is another to consider after a couple of Polytrack wins over 1m4f in December though he's closely matched with Straversjoy on latest running here. Maison Brillet and Mexican Bob have the past form to figure if going back far enough.
