MARZOCCO has much the best form and is clear at the weights. A fifth in last year's St Leger, John Gosden's charge stays this longer trip and can make a winning reappearance. Fire Fighting is next best on today's terms with a placed effort in Listed company at Kempton in January though he ran poorly over 1m6f at Meydan just 12 days ago. John Reel is proven over today's trip unlike Fattsota, who also returns from Meydan, while Resiliency has it all to do in this company.
