Boanerges gained an overdue victory last time and should go close in his follow up bid, however we will take a chance with Zazous, Multahab is another that should go well. The selection is trying this trip for the first time, but did run well here over six furlongs recently when third to today's rival Jasmine Pearl. He ran well for a long way in that contest so this distance shouldn't be a problem and he is much better off with that rival this afternoon. Multahab's recent second behind Amanda's Lad at Leicester makes quite good reading and he will be difficult to keep out of the frame. Boanerges beat a modest bunch on the all-weather at Southwell last week, but also has some decent enough form on the turf. Now he has remembered how to win he should be involved in the finish. Recent winner Malutio may do best of the others, but Zazous has the form to land this and he gets the verdict.
