SALTARELLO has never won but has been narrowly beaten on three occasions and it's about time he was gaining his first success. Lone Star Boy looks the type to do better this season and is respected along with Harlestone Hope, who battled on into third at Chelmsford last month. Cadeaux's dam has produced winners with her first two foals while the newcomer Pushingmypatience has a smart pedigree and gets plenty of allowances.
