Selections: 2-6-9-17
Here's our highlight. 1, 17, 19, 20, 21 are in other races. Pace from 4, 8, 9, 20 and 15. GENERAL SALUTE was freshened before the Bill Ritchie win and has had 5 weeks leading back into this. He will be well suited in some good money races in the final weeks of 2026. Tim Clark very familiar - 8 rides for 2:2:2. New Zealander SWEYNESDAY draws for a lovely trail and looks to have come back nicely this prep. ACCREDITED (2nd to COAL CRUSHER in this race last year) looks another strong chance for top three. PERICLES also in the C.F. Orr at Sandown and given the wide barrier here they might choose to go to that Group 1.
