Top weight SALUTE THE SOLDIER looks capable of returning to winning ways with a victory in this competitive 1m handicap. The selection was in good form when last in action and can take this at the chief expense of Mythical Madness who has won three times at this venue. Third place can go to Executive Force who has been running well over further in recent starts.
