Brian Ellison and Danny Cook have started their new association with a winner or two and DAR ES SALAAM can do the business for the team. The King's Best gelding was last seen over fences in the jumping game when taking a couple of falls but he's returned to the fray in good style on the Flat after a year's absence. He's well treated over timber and can oblige. Sharadiyn has yet to score over hurdles but has some fair form to his name and goes particularly well at this track. He looks sure to be in the shake-up, as does Cool Boranca if reproducing her improved latest effort when chasing home What A Steel in a decent Kelso hurdle.
