Verdict
There’s been no stopping SAUSALITO, who landed a four-timer in classified company before winning again back in a handicap over track and trip. Eased down in the closing stages last time, he’s worth sticking with until beaten. Anisoptera ran below par behind the selection last week while Abstract beat Hill Station here before struggling at Wolverhampton. Knight Of Kings will be sharper for a recent outing while Imperial Cult has more scope than most.
