      In depth

      Verdict

      Zamaani handled the soft going at Redcar when second in the Two-Year-Old Trophy with a below par Shark Two One behind. He should be in the mix once again but LIPIZZANER is also at home on the ground having found only one too good in a Group 3 at the Curragh last time and the Ballydoyle colt may prove the one to side with. Just Frank won a valuable sales race at Newmarket in good style and there may be more to come from him but maiden winner Helmont and Intrusive, rated only 73, have it all to do in this company.
