      Verdict

      ZIHAAM won over track and trip back in June and went close again here last time with Wotabreeze three lengths behind. Roger Fell’s charge should make another bold bid and Amazing Michele should also be in the mix with a repeat of her placed effort in a higher grade at Leicester. Regal Mirage is another with claims back at this level but Hilborough attempts this longer trip for the first time after placing over 1m2f here. My Fantasea has two ways of running but is due one of her better efforts having won nicely at Doncaster on her penultimate start.
