Verdict
Saluem has some of the best turf form on show here and is likely to be popular among punters. His one AW appearance was poor but it was over a wholly inadequate trip and he will be better suited here. He is the TEAMtalk selection. Hugh Morrison does well with his horses at this track and his Pango has a good chance of getting in the money here stepping up in trip. Cut Rate has won here over 12 furlongs but he is prone to running some poor races so can not be backed with confidence though at his best he would be good enough to win. Kells takes a step up in distance here but he ran well enough over 9 furlongs at Newbury on soft to suggest this trip will be no problem. Rainbow River ran better than expected here on Monday and if sent out again should run well.
