Solid pace with Ramones finding the front but it won't be a picnic with a few other speedy types engaged. Tricky Highway. SALUTE AGAIN (11) sound return with the big weight when gripping on late to secure third over 1200m at Wagga. Goes just as well second up and has raced well in this class in the past. Top chance from the draw. WIN THE DAY (9) improving mare chasing her third straight win. Ploughed through the heavy (9) going when a slick 4 len winner over 1410m at the Sapphire Coast. In peak form and deserves her chance. MCKEON (7) got the gun run from the draw but failed to finish off when tenth over 1400m at this track in the Country Championship. Big drop in grade and McEvoy sticks. Each way. A POUND OF SALT (10) improving gelding who returns from a 36-day let-up. Had the race won a long way out as fav when a 1.5 len winner over 1280m at Muswellbrook. Raced well in this grade in the past and will need luck early from the draw. BALLINDERRY SAL (17) handy mare returning from a29 day let-up. Drops in weight after scoring a solid win in easier company at Scone. Keep safe. SUGGESTED PLAY: Salute Again each way.
