Verdict

WALKS LIKE THE MAN has to concede weight all round but displayed a willing attitude when opening his account at Plumpton and can make light of his 6 lb penalty. Saladins Son has the form to play a part and can chase home Anthony Charlton's 6-y-o, ahead of the lightly-raced Crypto Currency.
