Verdict
As the top money earner from the current season on the all weather so far, anything David Barron sends out has to merit serious consideration and his Titus Salt is no exception in this competitive looking handicap. There are numerous dangers though, and Could She Be Magic and Daring Affair have to be considered if the market shows signs of confidence behind their chances today. The same sentiments apply to Blue Empire, whose trainer holds a numerical advantage over Barron from his haul on the level this winter. However, Titus Salt, who was set alight by the first-time blinkers when he last visited this course, appeals as the more progressive runner today. The speedily-bred gelding has already proved that this trip holds no fears for him and he could be a step ahead of the rest just at the moment.
