Draw Advantage: NoneKHARTOUM is 7lbs worse off with Saltonstall that when beating him 2.8L in June but is smart and has the inside draw. The weight-for-age scale has closed 7lbs on older Saltonstall since June but KHARTOUM remains top adjusted-rated runner and can confirm Curragh June placings as he drops in grade from Goodwood, in a race won by a high class horse. KHARTOUM holds stablemate Horoscope (by 3L) and Charterhouse (by 8L) on previous meetings. Saltonstall won a Listed race last November so escapes without a winners' penalty and ran well at Galway. He became upset in the stalls when beaten by the selection in June, should give him a race but is drawn wide in 10. Tazaral bumped into a smart type at Navan and while he drops back to a mile, can progress some more and is race-fit. Masen, in contrast, hasn't run since September but did place at Group 3 level last August and today's race is likely to have been his target for some weeks.
