Captain Claret was an 80/1 chance when caught close home over the course and distance last month and has plenty of scope though, like Pretty Pickle who disappointed in soft ground at Chepstow, the conditions aren't certain to suit. Zeimaam's three runs at the backend of last year were on the all-weather but he should be better for his reappearance in a Doncaster handicap in June. JUNVIEVE finished last of three on her reappearance at Salisbury earlier this month but her best run last summer was on good to soft ground at Chepstow and she can get off the mark though this won't take much winning and the newcomer Deep End is a half-brother to four winners.
