PLAY SMARTER
SALT OF THE EARTH has already tasted success in points and he should be more wound up than the bulk of his rivals given his stable, so he gets the nod in what could prove to be a hot contest. Sandalwood also makes plenty of appeal on paper, while Revasser deserves respect despite being penalised for his Warwick success 6 months ago.
