    Verdict

    Spartan Fighter missed out on a hat-trick over track and trip but not by much and can figure again. Kind Review went close over 6f here with Barney's Bay well behind and Tadleel finished third over a mile at the same fixture. Lead Story has also been in good form at the track and is preferred to Cry Havoc but the veteran FIRMAMENT gets a speculative vote in an open contest. David O’Meara’s charge won a higher grade race over course and distance in September and placed off today’s mark last time.
