Race Tip

SALUDAR (2) will strip fitter for this after running below expectations when resuming at Sandown-Hillside, finishing fifth and beaten 5 lengths over 6f. Faces an easier assignment so he is likely to play a big role. SPARKLING AWARD (8) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when 1. 75 lengths away in second over 6f at this track when she was always up in the leading division. Finds the right race this time and can take the next step and salute. BRADFORD (1) is a six-start maiden who finished fifth at his most recent appearance over 6½f at Seymour. Among the chances in what looks a nice race for him. COLLECTIONNEUR (12) is a nicely bred filly by leading sire I Am Invincible from the stakes-winner Choose on debut. In the placings at most recent Werribee trial. Blinkers on one of the contenders.
