Verdict

Oisin Murphy takes over the reins on Saluti with the latter’s stablemate Buccaneers Vault raised 5lb for winning at Redcar when NORMANDY BARRIERE was runner-up. That was the latter’s first outing since October and first since undergoing wind surgery and Nigel Tinkler’s charge is taken to reverse running with William Buick an eye-catching booking. Spirited Guest had the measure of Whelans Way when narrowly beaten at Windsor and can figure while Rasheeq went close over track and trip and is preferred to Equally Fast over today’s distance. Treacherous can race off a lower mark on Turf and took advantage at Goodwood last month and Rock Boy Grey is another with a shout.
