Racing Post verdict

Third-party

This has the makings of a tight race, but Saliko can get back on track after a moderate run of results, having shown signs of revival on quick ground two starts back and now dropping 5lb below her last winning mark, with an excellent record at this course in her favour too. Phaedra, sharpened by a first-time tongue-tie worn again tonight, rates the chief danger if she settles for it and builds on a recent runner-up effort, while Rosemary May's penultimate effort also demands respect, though her stamina for this longer trip remains unproven. Celestias Comet, whose rating keeps easing, and Dinah Myte, only 1lb out of the handicap, also warrant some each-way thought. Saliko is the selection in what looks a competitive renewal.
