SMOOTH SALUTE (7) has put together back-to-back placings after scoring three back at this track (Turf), most recently beaten 2 lengths into third over 1m at this track (Turf). Will relish the drop in class so he is sure to prove hard to beat. GAVEA (2) won his maiden over this course and distance last start, getting the verdict by 16 lengths. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Nicely drawn and he is a great chance to go back-to-back. BAD SNEAKERS (10) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 1m1/2f at this track, beaten 15 lengths. Tackling a more suitable race so he can play a big role. TELOS (5) was out of the money when resuming from a lay-off last start over 1m at this track, beaten 5.5 lengths. Likely improver with top-three prospects.
