Salon S led for home and opened up to win by nearly two lengths carrying 61kg.

Salon S went through an Inglis Digital Sale in august 2023 fetching $17,000 and was then re-offered at Magic Millions Book 2 in the Murrulla Stud draft where he made $90,000 when bought by Lor Bloodstock.

Salon S is a half-brother to stakes-placed Viva Graciousness and is one of six winners from six to race from stakes-winning Ferocity mare Divine City.
