Verdict

TUCO SALAMANCA underwent wind surgery following three quiet runs at 2 yrs and has improved markedly since returning to action last month, landing a 7f Kempton maiden in good style prior to following up on handicap debut over 8.6f at Wolverhampton. A 3 lb rise for that probably underestimates him and dropping back in trip shouldn't inconvenience this strong-travelling type. Hot To Dot also remains with potential and she is second choice ahead of Sorbus and Saxonia.
