      Verdict

      Strictly Glitz may struggle returning to the Flat but a case can be made for all of the remainder. Sakhalin Star failed to figure last time but won at Hamilton before that and Fantasy Gladiator has gone close in both starts since scoring over track and trip last month. Sallabeh is getting closer and preferred to My Strategy but TOMMY'S SECRET gets a tentative vote having been beaten only a head off a higher mark over course and distance back in April and dropping back down in class for this.
