Forecasts
Golden Ace (5/2), Lucky Place (3/1), Salver (10/3), Langer Dan (5/1), Gowel Road (7/1), Thunder Rock (22/1), Twig (33/1)
SALVER shaped as though ready for a stiffer test when capping a productive juvenile campaign by finishing third in the Triumph Hurdle here in March. He again left that impression when fourth on return at Newbury and, now given the chance to show what he can do over a longer trip, the 5-y-o gets the nod ahead of Golden Ace, who was only fourth behind Lucky Place at Ascot but she should be sharper here. Langer Dan is the pick of these in terms of raw ability but this scenario may not be ideal.
