Race Overview
SALVA MEA (1) has been running well without a win as yet. She has placed form in Listed Class on her second run and ran a pleasing race when fourth in a handicap in late June. She has the most weight to deal with but is a marginal choice ahead of BLUE BROTHER (16) who has been second four times out of six runs, he ran an encouraging race last time and has a low weight to carry. CABERNET FRANC (2) looks like a good option each way.
