Verdict

SILVER RANGER has the advantage of course experience having finished runner-up over track and trip last time. It was a long way back to the third and the Hannon colt looks up to landing this. Big Chill could prove next best on his second at Salisbury given Yukon Gold never figured on his debut over 6f at Haydock and Rocky Desert was well beaten at Doncaster last month. Make It Up is bred for further but worth noting for the future along with fellow newcomer Artistic Flight.
