Salmanino (6/4), From The Ashes (11/4), Speed Gang (6/1), Old Soul (7/1), Simply Shabra (10/1), Cahirdown Boy (11/1), Coolcullen (50/1), Round The Buoy (66/1), Low Mileage (66/1)

SALMANINO looks to have been found a good opportunity to open his chase account after posting two good second placings this term and with this return to a longer trip also a plus. From The Ashes exited early when tried in cheekpieces here last time and can bounce back with the headgear quickly dispensed. The lightly raced Speed Gang and fencing newcomer Old Soul are two more to consider for place purposes.
