Express Payment should find the front with The Patron Saint and Cool Panels on his heels. COOL PANELS (8) has placed one from one over this track and trip and is drawn to get a cosy run in transit from the inside marble. Should be right in the firing line. VALANTINO ROC (4) has just run into one better at the past couple and strikes a race decimated by scratchings. Rates a serious contender on recent efforts. EXPRESS PAYMENT (2) gets the Heathcote/Callow combination and cannot be ignored. PUCCINI DREAM (9) strips fitter second-up from the spell and goes well for hoop Collett. Top-three hope. SUGGESTED PLAY: Cool Panels to salute.
