Verdict
This meeting can be a bit of a minefield for punters but fancied runners do well in this with only one of the last eight winners starting at bigger than 11/2. Irish raider In Salutem seems sure to be near the head of the market after a string of consistent efforts but he's been racing over further. OUT DO, a Listed winner at York last year, has been running well enough this season without quite getting there and holds the disappointing Burnt Sugar on their run together at Doncaster last week. He gets the nod though Dutch Masterpiece has similar credentials while Union Rose has returned from a lay-off in good form and wasn't beaten far over course and distance last month.
