ZOUKSTER was having only his fifth start when scoring at Salisbury and with Bill Loughnane booked can complete a double from 6lb higher. Al Motasim looks a major threat after a handicap debut second at Haydock where he was beaten less than a length. He easily holds Vasilissa on that run but Freetodream was well supported when landing the spoils at Brighton where he overcame trouble in-running so there should be more to come.
