      Verdict

      Brittleton improved throughout last season though his victories on Turf came over longer trips and he ran poorly on his reappearance. Dakota City has won on Polytrack and Tapeta but has no real form on Turf while Eastern Lady was well beaten in a poor Kempton maiden last time. Jarir landed a Lingfield maiden in January but has only been running moderately in handicaps so this can go to HEARTY. Jeremy Noseda's charge looked ideally suited by this sort of trip and ground when battling to victory at Lingfield and looks to have a bit of scope.
