Expecting Jp's Palace to take up the running with Shoot The Rapids and Bruh close at hand. I SALUTE YOU (6) was always forward and boxed on to finish second over 1600m in stakes class at Kenilworth last time. Nice class drop this time. Overdue for a win and gets chance. P'S PALACE (4) is coming off a last-start third, beaten 3 lengths, over 1600m at this track. Has the right profile. FIELD MARSHAL (7) missed the frame when resuming from a break last time out, finishing fourth and beaten 4 lengths over 1600m in stakes class at this track. Overall record sound when second-up, including a win and three minor placings, and will strip much fitter for this. Leading chance on best form. BRUH (1) ran fourth at his latest appearance over 1950m at this track, clocking in 3 lengths from the winner. Has definite claims.
