TWELTH MAN (8) doesn't boast the best winning strike rate but ran a strong race when fresh from a lay-off last time out, finishing third and beaten only 2 lengths over 6f at this track (Dirt) after being in contention on the bend. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including a win and four minor placings. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. WINNING CONNECTION (4) hasn't made an impression lately despite market confidence. Last start could only manage seventh over 1m at this track (Dirt). Among the leading chances. FACE ABARRIO (2) drifted well back and failed to finish it off last start when sixth, beaten 29 lengths, over 7f at this track (Dirt). This looks a sterner test than last time but on his best form he is one of the key runners. BAD LARRY (3) has switched yards since finishing third a week ago over 6f at this track.
