Zigayani obviously merits respect hailing from the Stoute operation but his two runs to date have proved adequate at best. This additional furlong may well aid his cause but MARSHALL JENNINGS, admittedly a major disappointment when beaten at odds-on last time, nevertheless boasts the strongest form profile on offer by far. The return to a seventh furlong seems sure to suit and a repeat of either of his first two outings would more than suffice. Anything that William Haggas runs at present needs to be taken seriously which brings newcomer Enville into the equation whilst the remainder need to improve greatly on efforts to date in order to figure.
