Sallaal set to make mark at Hamilton again
The Gazette
|July 17, 2025
SALLAAL will look to repeat a course and distance success and enhance his reputation when he lines up for the Wellman Cars Private Hire Almada Mile Handicap at Hamilton.
-
The unexposed Roger Varian-trained Frankel colt came up trumps on his last appearance in South Lanarkshire in May, securing his second victory on his third start by three lengths, raising hopes he could be a Derby horse.
He has been off since, however, and steps into handicap company for his reappearance against the likes of seasoned operators such as Brave Emperor and English Oak. But the Varian runner is clearly held in some regard and might be a horse to keep tabs on for the rest of the year.
Tim Easterby’s Bleep Test should maintain his consistent form in British Stallions Studs EBF Nursery Handicap.
The two-year-old has been progressing throughout his five-race career, finishing no lower than third albeit a couple of races coming in small fields.
After winning on debut, he produced his best performance in class two at York when he went down by just a neck and might improve further now he goes handicapping for the first time in this Hamilton Park 2-Y-0 Series qualifier.
