Verdict

Ballot Box and Rhythm Of Love have shown plenty of speed from the gates in the past and can make the pace here. Vocal Music and Ellona , respected in first-time cheekpieces, can make their presence felt, but preference is for BIG BAD SAL , handicapper takes a chance dropping the filly 1lb.
