Verdict

SALON S (1) continued his unbeaten run with by bolting in by 2.5L in an exciting all-the-way victory under Matthew Poon. He's been to the trials since where he moved well and this looks well within his grasp. Can continue to work his way through the grades. ALL'S WELL (7) was far too good for his rivals last time out, bolting in by 3L in an impressive display. He steps up in grade today, but he drops 9lbs and this looks to shape similarly. Can repeat the dose without surprising. LUCKY SAM GOR (2) disappointed last time out when out in trip for the Classic Cup, but his form prior reads well. Back to a more suitable trip this time around for Chau and he can return to winning ways with the aid of a good draw. ROMANTIC GLADIATOR (6) showed enough on debut to suggest he can make the grade. Up in trip should suit and he can build on the fresh effort.
