SALIGO BAY is creeping closer to opening his account over timber and found only one too good again at Huntingdon last time having placed here before that. He’s receiving weight from the older Alto Alto and gets the vote. The latter posted a decent effort at Taunton recently and looks the main threat unless Mamluk shows a big improvement for last month’s hurdling debut at Newbury.
