In depth
Verdict
SALVATORE was pulled-up at Cheltenham last month but won one of these events at Musselburgh before that. Clear at the weights, he should have the measure of these. Right Of Reply returned from a lengthy absence with a second of four runners at Fakenham but Master Dancer disappointed at Ludlow last month while Danny Park debuts over fences.
