SALEH appears to be in the form of his life and is less exposed than most of these. The son of Iffraaj may not have finished progressing yet and looks the one to beat under top AW jockey Adam Kirby. The drop in trip for Choral Clan looks like a smart move and his consistency may well see him grab a place while Almanack returned to form last time out and is well-handicapped if he can put it all together. 1.
