Verdict
Seal Of Solomon remains 8lb higher than when winning at Chelmsford in April and SALIGO BAY (NAP) is preferred. The latter returned to winning ways back on fast ground at Windsor and Gary Moore’s charge can defy a 3lb rise. Captain Kane showed good progress last year and has returned to a winning mark while Wonder Starelzaam was winning on the all-weather in March having also scored here last summer.
