MISS ZIP is only a pound higher than when completing a double at Sedgefield last season. She is eased in grade and reunited with Adam Wedge so a big run is anticipated. Episode will probably be a warn favourite off the back of a staying-on second over track and trip latest. She is only 2lb higher so has every chance of going one better. Krujers Girl showed improvement at Leicester in November but failed to follow that up at Plumpton. Achy Breaky Heart is preferred to Mrsgrey of the remainder.
