Verdict

SALADINS SON takes a big drop in class having contested a warm handicap at Sandown 3 weeks ago and he looks ready to take full advantage. Kaituna River and Record High have both had light careers so far but a step forward from either would come as no surprise here.

  1. SALADINS SON (IRE)
  2. KAITUNA RIVER (IRE)
  3. RECORD HIGH (IRE)
