I'm Improving and Salazar are the most interesting of the newcomers but WEELLAN sets a high standard based on his bold front-running effort last week in a better race than this. He was only reeled in close home on a stiffer track than this and it alter transpired the first two had found the pick of the ground. French Flyer was impressive here on his debut but that form looks weak now in comparison to the selection.
