Saluti was placed three times at Kempton at the end of last year, all over 6f. Ryan Moore rides on his debut on Turf and he shouldn’t be far away but MUHAJJAL takes a significant drop in class for this having last been seen at Haydock in September when fourth behind last week’s St James’s Palace Stakes winner Barney Roy. He’d earlier only been beaten a neck by a couple of subsequent winners at ascot and that is much the best form on offer. Jim Crowley prefers the Cape Cross colt to newcomer Raawy, who is a half-brother to two winners, though the latter makes most appeal of the remainder.
