Race preview
SALADAM was unable to justify favouritism when finishing second here last month, but the six-year-old still holds leading claims on that performance and looks the one to beat. Hold Up La Colmine has recorded a string of creditable efforts in defeat in similar contests and is feared most. Bellaney Lord appeared to be running a better race before unseating his rider late on at Down Royal last month and is another to consider.
