Salut Saint Cloud is the confident vote with Garston Star and Holly Walk rating the main dangers. The selection ran well last time out when third behind Final Dividend, he ran well there considering he did not handle the track and with this course sure to suit more he is taken to score under conditions that suit. Garston Star rates the main danger he won an apprentice race in good style last time out when beating Traveller's Tale and he escapes a penalty for that win so he is well in. However his best form is on turf and for that reason he is passed over here. Holly Walk is another worthy of respect on his best form but he was very disappointing for no apparent reason last time so can not be backed with any confidence. Of the remainder Middleham Rose is from a shrewd yard and is worth noting in the market but her over all form suggest she has a little to find and she will need to improve on her latest effort to defeat the selection Salut Saint Cloud.
