It's difficult to have much confidence in any of these. ABBRACCIO fared much better on the Polytrack earlier this year than he has in two subsequent starts on the Turf and he gets the tentative vote back on this surface. He's rated higher than both Peak Storm and The Mongoose, both placed on the all-weather last time and Lieutenant Dan, a close-up third over C&D in October. Infortual was fancied to make a winning return at this track recently but offered little encouragement on her first start since February.
