Verdict

HARTMAN (3) is a smart sprinter who returned from a break with a dominant win over this course and distance fresh, keeping his unbeaten record here at the trip intact. Fitter and although yet to win second-up it's hard to knock how he's returned. Drops nicely in the weights and will take beating again. THOROS OF MYR (4) is another go-forward galloper and will give a sight. Was run down by Hartman fresh and no better off at the weights but fitter and will be in this for a long way again. CHEROKEE DANCER (5) ran fourth in the same race when also fresh from a break. Meets the first two much better at the weights and has to be considered. ALPINE WOLF (2) goes well fresh and loves it here. TSUNAMI SAM (1) is a veteran who will give a sight.
